  3. Gent,

    Its been a pleasure drive this morning with @Srikumar for showing us a how to have fun in the hidden side of Sweiham. Glad to attend this drive with you! 

    Thank you to @Zulfikar @Haitham Khattab @Looper(great car by the way! and you deserved an appreciation for winching the poor guy with his half cooked car off the deep end) @Awais Zuberi for the keeping us in tact.

    I must say, this drive is no doubt enjoyable and clocking some good mileage!

    Take care, am going for a snooze!

  4. This stretch along the milky way usually packed with campers and picnickers. 

    We have been there many times and find it worthwhile for the shooting star spotting and amazing stars photos.

    I would recommend to go deep in rather than near to the side of the dirt road. Beware of the police checking on the camp fire straight on to the desert sand. Recommend to bring a few portable fire pits to share among you, just in case the police come to inspect. By the way, 2WD is easily assessible upto the edge of the dirt road.

    Shame I couldnt make it there. Have a good one!
