It was a great drive, few challenges, few stucks. Loved the sliding off the dunes and once few off. Flying off was a great experience for me (did anyone take pics - Diver, Miss D?). Almost4x4 Marshals and Management - you guys chose a fantastic route, and hoped the drive never ended. Waiting for the next trip - probably one more catch me if you can.

Usually on newbie trips you can enjoy the beauty of the desert and see hundreds of meters in front of you. ON this trip, lead by Alkhatib and sweeper Sylvester, all I enjoyed was the rear end of the car in front of me.:013: It was intense and my first experience at an "intermediate" level drive, that's what our leaders called it:045: The six of us, Sarookh, FSL, Mad Wrangler, Rexterra, Fadi and myself had the privilege of driving this trip.
I got stuck pretty quickly climbing up a dune; I dipped into a bowl and got stuck. Sylvester rescued me but only after taking that all important "stuck" picture. After that, there were no delays and we drove for long periods at a time switching second lead amongst the 6 of us.
The route chosen was brillant and had everything... cresting, climbing, dips, bowls and all other types of maneuvers that i don't know the name of.:015: Our marshals at ALMOST are the best!!
THANK YOU Alkhatib and Sylvester

Well what can I say? it seems that when ever I join the Almosters in any kind of trips, it turns out to be a great trip and i say that in all levels,
After a sleepless, awesome, fun camp somewhere near the super bowl, I started the beautiful chilly morning with some coffee & action, as i was taking some friends in short and fast drives just to worm up my blood :011:, then we headed back to Al Badayer shops, got briefed by the Great Al Shamsi, then each joined his designated convoy, mine was Falcon's,
I was honored to be a rescue Marshal at this trip, and thanks to all the Marshals who trusted and believed in us, and many thanks to all the advanced drivers for being away in an advanced trip :008:,
The drive was smooth comfortable with one stuck and one pop-out, and very few issues to report, we drove till we reached the awesome pink rock, and did some sight seeing and drove back to Al Badayer shops,
Again all the credit goes to our great Marshals and drivers for making life full of fun and adventures,
A special thanks goes to Sheikh Fadi and the gang for a great night,
To Falcon for counting on our ability to be responsible
To Gorgin for being so good at what he does, which is in this case being so neat and organized :003::045:
and to all of my friends for there support and company, especially my dear friend Diver for being fun to be around.
Love u all guys and can't wait to see u all again next weekend.
