We are going to drive one of the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge tracks that be conducted in 2015. It is going to be around 245 KM offroad from Madinat Zayed to the Ghost Town in Araada. It is one of fantastic drives that expected to be EASY but remember that this is LIWA so get ready to be caught with SOFT SAND & SHARP DROPS.

On the Day 1, we will camp in the middle of nowhere, enjoying BBQ,
Sounds good, right, but if you think that Marshals will bring wood and food, you’re wrong; it’s your job dear members.
