Every year, only a select few with the skills, grit, and determination step up to the challenge of Advanced Training with Desert Fellas. This Saturday, under a blazing afternoon sun, we kicked off their journey.

We started by setting clear objectives and diving into some theory because, let’s face it, knowing the why is just as important as nailing the how. With that foundation in place, we rolled straight into practical exercises.

At first, our team of off-road students had to wrestle with a few nerves, but after an easy warm-up, those jitters were left behind, buried deep in the sand. Soon, the thrill of mastering new techniques and tackling tougher challenges had everyone locked in and grinning ear to ear.

The afternoon wasn’t just about skills; it was about stepping out of comfort zones and pushing both drivers and rigs to their limits. One vehicle even had to bow out early thanks to a stubborn airflow sensor, but setbacks aside, the team smashed through the day’s goals and laid down a rock-solid foundation for the next lesson.

Great job, team! Excited to see your progress as the course unfolds, and a big shout-out to our sweeper, Marcin, for keeping the convoy safe from start to finish.
