Safety.

Riding in the Middle East brings its own challenges - sand on the road, the extreme heat, camels and goats and drivers from all over the world used to different rules and customs.

In order to ensure that our rides are as safe as possible, we have a Safety Officer Khalifa  and a Road Captains Khalifa, Bader, Ismile.

For new riders or old riders that would like a refresher course on some safety aspects and every day riding techniques please Contact The Road Captain
