All cars eventually meet at Al Faya and Viking lead to the deflation point.
Because there were so many cars we split into 2 groups
Thanks to Viking for taking responsibility for the newbies and Ali for leading, Thanks also to Lee and Halwa .
I took the Advanced and Intermediate drivers on challenging route which all handled very well thanks to Nahhash for taking second lead and Zoogie for sweeping
Hope to see you all in the Sand again

Re: Report: Return of the Crazy Jeep
The trip was interesting as usual when the "NZ devil" is involved. We started as two groups and the plan was to reach Al Khatim but due to circumstances we ended up staying in Khazna-area where we had the BBQ afterwards. The later part we handled as one big group and it was a big convoy but OK. Thanks to Ali for leading the first part of the route and as you said - it is a quite tricky area and sometimes hard to find an easy route across the dunes but you did very well.
I hope the Newbies picked up what this is all about. Have fun and drive safe. In order to do both you need to know your car and how it handles in the sand. I think you all did great and I hope to see you soon.

Re: Report: Return of the Crazy Jeep
Thanks guys for a nice trip. Its a challenging area and guess for some of the newbies got to experience intermediate level at certain parts. You all did well, a couple of stuck's and tire popout's... but we learn me including and its a good experience. Thanks to JC, Viking and Ali who lead the newbie group. It gr8 to be out now when the temp cools down...well maybe not during the day...but the evening was pleasant. Hope to see you soon again!
I will post a couple of photos soon.
