This morning 10- drive found us in the Al Faqaa area on a very hot weather and a very small group of drivers
Unfortunately the area has become no drivable any more from the vegetation and bushes
The small group of drivers perform well over all with minor delays and sporadic assisted rescues.
In this lever radio communication, and throttle control are the two major tasks to be practice on.
I would like to thank all the support team and marshal that attended the drive as well all the fellow drivers
Keep driving its gets harder by the day
See you all on the next one

Hello everyone,
We started the day early this time with our 10- Newbies. Weather was hot even that early,but all members were on time, we had a very quick briefing.
The drive started with usual Faqa style of mid size climbs, however, it was almost impossible to find a sand in between the bushes. We literally passed an ocean until we reach the sand again towards end of the drive.
Hats off to our lead @giorgio to find the proper track in between bushes to entertain our Newbie drivers. We had couple of stucks and some second tries. Thanks to @Mghoneim for the rescues and support.
Need to remind: chg by improving.
See you next time.

So much for the “easy” drive that we were promised to suit us 5- drivers. ;-) I should have worn brown shorts! ;-) That was quite an intense and tricky drive… and a bit like being thrown in atthe deep end of the pool, having not driven for a good couple of months.
Lots of sharp ascents and descents in quick succession, some cresting, lots of bushes and very soft sand. It didn’t help that my car reverted to 2H even though 4H was selected… need to get that checked! As well as fix my bumper… did I mention the steep descents and the plethora of bushes? :)
Good learning curve, and kind of fun when I had time to catch my breath and stop swearing. ;-)
Thank you @giorgio , @Barish and @Mghoneim for your patience and support … ‘til next time.
