All Work and No Play

Makes Bill a Dull Boy!

Since the fall of last year, I have been spending way too much time working in the island country of Bahrain in the Persian Gulf.  I certainly can’t complain about the accommodations.

It has been virtually one project right after the other and I am looking forward to getting it all of done.

The work is certainly rewarding but I am ready to get back home to be with family and friends and back on some dirt.

Not this kind of dirt.

This kind of dirt!

So with all of this time I have had over here to pour through all of the MTB resources over here,  I have boiled down things into my number one tip for planning a mountain biking trip to Bahrain…..

DON’T! This place sucks for mountain biking!

I’m sure you could make some kind of lemonade with the bitter lemons of this place.   Maybe with a Fatbike and riding at night when its only like 95 but really try Death Valley in summer first.
