MY LIFE IN UAE

NEW YEAR HEY YA ALL HAPPY NEW YEAR Well we went dune bashing for three days from new years eve till the second, Meet a group of fellow 4x4 drivers loads of different vehicles, from spec up wrangler jeeps to land cruisers with desert tyres on. We meet at a garage about thirty minutes from Dubai, and proceed to an entrance into the desert. Where we all stopped and put our flags on and deflated the tyres to about 15 psi. A briefing of who was leading and what order we should follow, then of to the sand. At first the dunes were sweeping twenty meter ones, not to bad I thought then we seemed to hit upon a a section of smaller dunes, which became very bumpy and the first 4x4 got stuck, it was the marshal of the ride? Quick look round and a tow out, was exciting to watch, the guys hooked a rope on and two beeps on the horn full revs and whoosh, the pathfinder was free. This happened a few more times, until he found his tyre pressure was still at normal road setting. Then we ground to a halt, had to dig the front two tyres out, and get pulled by Land rover disco, on our way again up and over the small dunes, bashing the front & rear end several times. We then moved on to some bigger dunes, and started power sliding on the face of the dunes, whoosh Did not think a two ton 4x4 would handle like a skate board with Tony Hawks on it. We then moved on to where we were camping, watched some of the guys try and start a BBQ, Started a fire with a area for cooking in ? flip saved the day again ! Set up camp few beers and a few more
