Nine11 Crew: Alpine roadtrip

For their season opening, our friends from Nine11 Crew organized their first Alpine roadtrip, with a few interesting stopovers on the way (more on that later). During the planning phase, they asked us to support them with creating a custom hoodie for the occasion. This also included creating a patch design that would later become the logo of their trip.

This is what we came up with - the PTRLSM x Nine11 Crew Hoodie:

...with a custom-designed jacquard patch, highlighting the most important itinerary details - Julierpass, Malojapass and Berninapass in Switzerland.

Equipped with our hoodies, they set out on an intense, 4-day journey through Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Austria. Over 3000 kilometers, countless corners and most importantly - a bunch of great people and cars. Speaking of, 8(!) 911s, a Lambo Urus and a BMW M2, quite an impressive line up:

First stopover - Augsburg. The next morning it was time to brand the cars:

As soon as it was done it was time to head out straight to one of the most legendary places for any Porsche enthusiast - RUF Automobile in Pfaffenhausen. The crew had the pleasure to have a private tour of the grounds and to meet Alois Ruf himself.

Some even convinced Mr Ruf to sign their Porsches:

Day 2 ended with a blast - with a ride through Julierpass and a stopover in St. Moritz.

Day 3 was all about the passes - Malojapass and Berninapass.

It's not hard to find snow there in April:

The day concluded around Lake Iseo, at La Montina Franciacorta, on the way to Lake Garda for the stopover.

Day 4 took the crew to Austria, the picteresque Wörthersee specifically. Even though the official car events have been recently banned there, some petrolheads still frequent the location at the end of April. It was no different here.

This was the end of the trip. With 1100 km to go, there was still quite some driving to do. We hear there were already some plans made for next year's trip.

On that note, we wanted to thank Nine11 Crew for making us a (small) part of this amazing journey and we hope to join next time, in person!
