Report: Early Breakfast in Sweihan 22/06/12
With couple of cancellations due to sickness or mechanical problems, the rest of the team met on time, and I was there early for a change
We headed out to the deflation point with a temperature of 30C, we chose Sweihan West area to have our breakfast there.
Once we started to play, and after few hundred meters, one car had a mechanical problem by the sound of it, and we decided that it's safer to park it by the gate and come back to it at the end.
So, after this little glitch, we reset our play time and started again, with less cars and well experienced drivers, we managed to hit the high dunes and play in the big bowels where everyone had fun, a break here and there to catch our breaths and have a smoke or a drink, but we used our time efficiently to be hungry enough for the main break meal.
Little skid plate issue delayed us but didn't stop us, unfortunately a radiator big leak managed to remind us that's it's breakfast time, so we stopped for breakfast, on the edges of a NICE BOWEL, where some had few rounds in, looking forward for the new avatar and pics.
Nice recovery techniques with very good team work got the broken car out to the main road with little effort and minimal time, where we called for the end of the trip, it was about time with a temperature of 45C on the clock.
Despite all the glitches here and there, the group was very nice, and we had great fun.
Grezgorz & Ioana, nice company guyz, and looking forward for the pics hope it's a minor issue in the car or nothing.
Grizzly, thanks for the 2nd lead, the way you handled that bowel looks very nice, and nice name created by MLC, I won't mention it as I'm in trouble already, let me know if you need any help with the car.
Ihab, elegant driving and great company, always pleasure to have you in the trip.
IDO, thanks for the co-sweeping, very good driving.
MLC, thanks for the co-sweeping, just one question for you, if you are doing all this now, what will you do when you re-gear?!
Everyone, thanks for the great company, and hope to see you soon in another nice but glitches free trip

The same are on facebook.
Day was hot but it was worth to woke up at 4 and drive to Sweihan.
Hope to see all of you soon (as driver or passenger).

Thanks DH for the great trip with great company as always.
Had a lot fun in this action filled trip while it lasted to the point where the Bananamobile had some trouble and had to pull out.
Finally I will be waiting for the next early morning trip

This was a really great trip even if it was cut a bit short by the Yellow Banana aka Moza!
The best thing was the great group, and the opportunity to drive together with such good company.
Sweihan West is so much more fun! We need to re-run this route again next time! Great track, lovely bowls and high dunes. And, of course, I am glad to say that the BOWLS OF SWEIHAN have finally yielded to Yusufi!!! ( Yusufi was always capable, it was me that was lacking to be honest!)
Many thanks to Gregorz and Iona for the lovely pictures, to Hani for the GREAT sandwich, to Ehab for being such a cool customer, to IDO for being my temporary passenger in the BIG BOWL, and of course to DH for making it all possible!
@ DH, you are too kind asking me what I will do when Yusufi is re-geared! As you know, it has taken both Yusufi and me a lot of hard work and mentoring to get to where we are now, so re-gearing will probably just make the same things a bit easier for us - like a treat after a hard season's work!!!

Yellow GRIZZLY, i might be wrong but i don't think that there is such a thing in real life unless there is a grizzly following the fashion trends and dying it's fur in yellow.Grizzly wrote:IDO wrote:You are saying that MLC wants to start a War and you keep writing in Yellow .Grizzly wrote:Very nice morning trip

I got call from garage and so far they found that engine and transmission mounts are broken.
Nothing else what could cause this sound but they will change mounts and check again.
