Trip Report Sweihan Thursday night 2nd edition Intermediates

Marshal support: Fido Dido

11 drivers met up at the Sweihan wedding Hall at 7:15 PM Thursday for Sweihan night drive. 7:30 pm we moved to deflation point on the “other side” of the big farm.

After safety briefing, convoy was set up with 52north (Jules) as second lead followed by lofflmj1 (Mark), Caro (Carolyn), Mr.Oliver (Olivier), Mr. George (Stephane), lazypilot (Leandro), drpaco2003 (Gabriel), Kharadly (Mohamed), Ahmed and Sweeper Fido Dido (Amr).

We started out at around 8PM with basic side slope training and then took direction towards Nagra with aim reach gatch road by the power lines. The first part of the drive became quite technical and sand was soft which led to a few second tries and recoveries, which were managed nicely. The second part of the drive was a bit easier and around 10:45 we reached the BBQ deflation/inflation point.

Special thanks to Fido Dido for the support and 2nd lead 52North. All drivers did very well, hope you all enjoyed it, I did :)

Until next time,

/Thomas (tompa-bjorka)

Hello Thomas,
This was my first night trip and a discovery for me!
I like your style: cool and relax...
Thanks to FidoDido for moving his car along the track at the right locations to ensure we did not get lost on the way!
Alos, and after a few years with AD4x4, I have realised that a great trip is always because it was done in great company.
This was a great trip: so thanks to all drivers as well!
Mister Oliver
