I want to go on a Blitztrip!

So you want to go blitztripping?! Fucking sick! What do you have to do to complete a full blitz trip?

  1. There must of course be a nice spot with wind and/or waves.

  2. You have to find enough interested parties who want to come along to fill one or more vans. (7 per bus is of course the cheapest)

3a. Ask the Beta if the amount of buses you need is available.

3b. The Beta asks for a trip plan, here you indicate how many bus driving licenses are available, how the bus will alternate between drivers and who will be co-drivers when. (This must of course be done by bus)

3c. The Beta gives permission or asks for adjustments, such as a different bus layout, etc.

  1. Prepare the buses:

4a. Refueling of the vans, on the trip is mutually paid for petrol instead of via PK. Keep track of the miles!

4b. Check and inflate tires. (Is safer and saves petrol)

4c. What are you still doing, PACKING of course.

  1. Steam it!

  2. Enjoy, and try to choke that forward

Note: Driving at night can be dangerous due to fatigue and other factors. Make sure you always have a sharp person behind the wheel, as well as an alert and capable co-driver!
