Dear all,
This is an email of many topics so bear with me...

First of all, thank you so much for all your nice words that have been coming my way for the last week or so. My only reply is that this was a team effort and all these congratulations are indeed earned by this amazingly flawless and resourceful organization team.

Second, the Pyramids rally is almost here and with the warm up we just had, it should be an interesting competition to see about these 57 seconds. Fees are finalized at LE3400 per racer and LE2340 per assistant. Deadline to register and pay is the 15th of March at Siag Hotel c/o Mr. Rami Siag.

Third, I have created fire. no, just a new group on facebook named "Egypt Rally" to unite the various groups and events I have here and there(except for sand sea sailors of course which would remain as my personal site). Pls join and invite other enthusiasts to do the same. Also upload your photos, videos and links as this should serve as a community forum. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=57648560737

Fourth, we are finishing up the collection and sorting of the Egypt Rally Cup photos and in a few days will announce a reunion where we will show a slide show of the nicest pics and a couple of other surprises.

Fifth, the coverage has started to appear. Here is the first link by Jehan Soliman, much more to follow.

Sixth, it is always a hard decision to part with a loved one but the time has come. Now that I hopefully have your attention and jokes aside, I have decided to seriously sell my mini cruiser (winner of Pyramids '07 and second in Egypt Rally Cup '09). So those interested, pls email me off list.

Last but definitely not least, preparations for the "Egypt Dune Challenge" have begun. I can say no more.

Does anybody remember what I talked about in the beginning of the email? :)
Enjoy,
mido
