Some new faces, some old. Since there were some Absolute Newbies in the drive the lead mixed the drive to cater to freshers as well as others who had some more experience. Till the first half of the drive it seemed to me that it was a Newbie- and during the break I said so much as well. I guess he took it personally as in the second half it became Newbie+. The initial terrain was south of Qudra and had a lot of vegetation hence making it quite a technical drive but in the later section the lead took excelletnt line on some long dunes and the entire convoy performed very well.
