** DCol (Dion)
**** Cantaloube (John)
**** Asif Padela
***** Bomolin (Borja)
We met at 09:00 h at the end of the Bu Tais gatch road and after safety & trip briefing we headed straight into the dunes. The temperature was very nice and the sand relatively soft. We drove along the ridge of dunes to the East turned around and headed back to the tree dune where we had a longer break.
We finished the trip at around 12:30 h at the Bu Tais gate.
We practiced a lot of driving in big bowls and climbing long and steep slopes as well as manoeuvring in more technical dunes.
One stuck and a number of second tries were handled efficiently by the support team.
The 2 intermediates used the opportunity to hone their skills, Timothy also being my second lead.
Great many thanks to John (also sweeper), Asif and Borja for excellent and well appreciated support and advice.
Hope all enjoyed the trip and see you all in the sand
