Trip Report Sweihan Night Drive 14 July -20

Post by tompa-bjorka »

Following drivers met up at Sweihan for an Intermediate (+?) night drive:

Myself (tompa-bjorka)
PearlyGates59
Borja
MyTommi
Black Panther (Bishar)

After some delays due to late arrival and short brief we got moving from ”Gate 12”, heading towards Nagra. Pace was good and we progressed like a roller coaster, with the result that Bishars passenger got motion sick and unfortunately had to abort the drive and head home. Rest of convoy continued towards Nagra where we made a longer break. We rounded Nagra and headed back towards “BBQ” point, which we reached around 10PM.

Thomas – you did well, especially considering you don’t see much with no “extra” lights : ) on the Nissan. Borja and Matt – thanks for the support.

See you next time.

Thanks Thomas- another fun night!
Worth emphasising that drivers should seriously consider whether bringing passengers is appropriate, especially on night drives.
