Sweihan Advance night drive report 17 February

Post by tompa-bjorka »

Myself, Asif, Jithu, Black Widow and JustAhmedo met up at Sweihan Gate 12 at 18:30pm for an advance night drive. After brief on night drives in general and sidecresting in particular, I set the convoy with Asif as 2nd lead and Jithu as sweeper. We started out carefully with side sloping and some small crests. Area was pretty beaten up still since last weekend, seems Sweihan is very busy these days.

We continued direction east and picked up the pace and level slowly. All doing well. BlackWidows Pathfinder started to complain a bit when it came to the power steering, but we could continue. Crossed the power lines and picked up the lower but soft crests in direction Nagra went more and more for side cresting. We had some second tries but not one single recovery needed. Turned before reaching Nagra and went back on the other side of farm to reach the BBQ point around 21:30, all in one piece.

Well done everybody, hope to see you soon again, more night drives will follow.
