Hello Members,

This drive is dedicated to our Club Members who are willing to make his/her first step to driving in the desert.

The trip involves a comprehensive training about driving in the desert and tools used in offroading and complimented with a drive to practice these learnings.

If you like to go further and qualify for Newbie level drives, you need to complete your tools and ask one of the marshals to check it after the drive.

The crew, intermediate and advanced drivers are welcomed for rescue training & support.

Dear Members,

We are scheduled for migration to a new web host/server on Monday. The website and the app will be down while the migration in under process, they are scheduled to be back online anywhere around 24 to 48 hours later.

For those of you who have already registered for the drive, we have your records saved with us so, no need to panic at all.

For those who are interested to register for the drive, they can register as soon as the migration to the new server is completed.

Cheers,
Scorpio

Can we please get the google location or coordinates of the "Sharjah" meeting point. As someone new to the club, I have no idea where to meet and it's not added to the information.

Hey @JOUAE2018,

The organiser of the drive will send a PM to all the registered drivers after the registration is closed.

You should receive the PM a day before the drive with all the details including the coordinates and the timings. Please don't share the drive details on any social platform.

See you on the sand.
