Escape into the void

We kicked off beside the truck road with a quick briefing on the plan for the night. @Asif Hussain, @ChrisW and @Giacomo added a few extra pointers on how to enjoy — and stay safe on — a Fewbie-level night drive. The most important takeaway: “If you see something scary, just turn off your lights.” 😂 With that valuable safety advice firmly understood, we headed into the technical zone for a few loops to warm everyone up and get comfortable driving in the dark. From there we moved into some larger terrain. We had a couple of refusals along the way, but unfortunately for @Sebastian Nohse, Giacomo and Chris, nobody managed to get stuck badly enough for them to break out their winches. As the drive progressed, I felt we found a really nice flowing Fewbie pace for nighttime. Rather than attacking the bigger climbs, we worked our way gradually higher — taking small steps, reading the dunes and picking a route through without needing any huge commitments. It made for a smooth and enjoyable drive, with plenty of time on the ridges and a good rhythm through the convoy. After 150 minutes of driving, it was time for the Coffee Club part of the evening. We pulled up, got the chairs out and sat around the light, enjoying the sight of a deep red moon hanging low over the desert. And Sebastian raised the Coffee Club standards considerably by producing actual espresso in the middle of the desert. ☕ A definite treat and a pretty perfect way to finish the night. @Lukas Wii I hope you enjoyed your first night drive, and we see you in some more. @Piotr. nice work convincing him to join and experience the dark side of desert driving. Good driving, good flow, good coffee and good company. 🌙☕🏜️

Don’t forget to pay through the app 😅

@Sam Selim apologies running late by 10min. First time driving on Umm Sequim at this hour, a parking lot 🤦‍♂️
