Badayer Intermediate with Tilki DXB - Trip Report
Posted: Sat Apr 24, 2021 9:26 pm
All met at Badayer at around 2pm.
At 2:30pm we finished the briefing and set on with the following convoy positions:
tilki - Lead
SandSailor - Second Lead
Amr21
Abusara007 - Sweeper
Ramesh arrived but due to technical difficulties went on the Newbie trip as a passenger.
MD joined us at the BBQ Point with his amazing food
Chief Khaiwi and Gabor - Support Team
We followed Gabor's coordinates which helped me plan the route ahead of the trip. Gabor sent me 13 good locations.
We visited all 13 points in the span of 3 and a half hours, without anyone getting stuck or being recovered.
Intermediate drivers should be proud of themselves.
They drove through large dunes and a few technical dunes with succession.
I must also mention that the second lead and others handled tall dunes well, without fighting gravity and safely coming down from the dune that they could not climb.
Thank you Gabor for reminding us of common driving mistakes during the trip, as well as supporting our sweeper.
Chief Khaiwi was always watching and supporting the convoy throughout the trip, with his fantastic Jeep.
We had a lot of straight crests to help improve Newbie skills. All of them managed the sharp dunes perfectly
As predicted, at 6:05pm we met at the Badayer BBQ point. We then waited for the Newbie's to arrive.
We had our Iftar dinner at the BBQ point until 12am, having coffee tea and Kunafa.
Thank You to everyone that brought food and drinks, it was all very delicious enjoyable.
It was very nice to see our friends: Bulldozer, Sai, Abdoo, Mustafa, Atari and everyone.
Hopefully we can have our great conversation next trip.
Amr21 could not find his Logbook for the signature, hopefully you found it by now!
Thank you all for an enjoyable trip and see you soon!
