Intrepid drivers
Michael
Anvar** (2nd lead)
Reji**
Ayfas**
Osama**** (sweeper/part lead)
Asif**** (support)
We all met at 6:30 and after settling into the drive we set off across, over and round the bowls and larger dunes on the way to Khazna stopping off to practice long side slopes and climbs whenever we spotted a fun looking feature and importantly to discuss drive instruction. Once we crossed into Khazna, Osama took over the lead and crafted a very enjoyable track to the inflation point.
The morning offered a variety of drive demands with faster sweeping runs mixed with technical sections to keep the drivers on their toes and allow skill development appropriate to the level. There were numerous second/third tries and a couple of stucks but nothing to dampen the fun of the day.
Very big thanks to all who joined, to Anbar for his second lead, to Asif and Osama for providing excellent support and feedback to the drivers as required, and a big congrats to Osama for a splendid part lead.
Till next time
Michael

It was a technical as well as a fun drive. Learned more technical tips. Selection of tract, I would say 'Marshal's brilliance'. Thanks Michcle for arranging this trip. Many thanks Asif and Osam for your support and advice during the trip. Again ! a friendly trip with Anwar and Shajumon, the great FJ people.

Thank you Michael for a wonderful trip again. You are a marshal in training as well and enjoy a lot on a trip with you. The most important part when you do high dunes is that there is Asif and Ossama to support with you. They both give enormous confidence and advise. Thanks a lot to both of you. With Anver and Reji enjoyed the trip very much. Thank you all and hope to see you all soon.
Regards
Shajumon.
