3 Kuwaitis riding around the world
Three Kuwaitis, Muhanad Al-Sultan, Husain Ashkanani and Ali Al-Bairami are going to ride their motorcycles around the world through 17 countries in a trip that will last around 120 days. They’ve set up a blog called “Our Shared Planet Motorcycle Adventure” where they will be documenting the ride which I think takes off from today. Their trip is sponsored by the Public Authority for Youth and Sports. Here is the [Link]
Thanks Dhari!

I agree, they should definitely film it and let someone produce it!

Happy to hear this and surprised too. I know one of them, but not much. Wish all of them a very safe trip and God bless them.

An Indian already did this sometime in 2007. He has a blog set up at http://bikingtheworld.blogspot.com/ , where he put all his experiences.

i know one of them very well,and trust me guys,this isnt the first time they do this thing,anyways,i sure hope them a safe trip,and cant wait for them to pass by:)

a7medo,
All three have been to various places including a trip or two to Europe but this is the 1st going around the World.I noticed one of the helmets equiped with a camera so there will be some footage but defintly no professional coverage. Ewan Mcgreger’s trip was documented due to direct support from BMW & other organizations
20. gabby | May 17th, 2009 at 8:57 am
Yes, this is not their first time. Mr. Ahkanani is my boss (vey nice guy)Wish them all the best!
21. a7medo | May 17th, 2009 at 11:58 am
jojo,
your right,it is the first around tht world,and yes,it will be a documented trip.

We get a group of Kuwati bikers in Oman on a regular basis – perhaps these three are part of that – good luck – especially to the north pole :)
23. Sit | May 25th, 2009 at 6:01 am
I wish them luck!! I hope when they arrive in the U.S. I am able to ride with them!
24. Joseph | May 25th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
WoW! that’s my officemate on the Left side Mr. Hussain Ahskanani, i think i should show him this page :-)

I have met them in Siliguri, India while they were returning from Bhutan and heading towards Nepal. They are really energetic and quiet friendly.
I wish them all success in their motorcycle expedition.
Keep Biking , Safe Biking
