If you end up getting dismounted from the trike, go back to where you first picked it up and get back on it. Otherwise you'll wander forever looking for the scouts and never find the last one.

Description
This was supposed to be a covert operation. Unfortunately, our Trade Prince insisted on coming along... with the loudest, most conspicuous vehicle the Horde has ever conceived. At least you're here with me, {name}. Let's get going, then. We know next to nothing about the Drustvar territory. It's time to do some recon.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
