Night Rider
I just got back from a late night ride. I hadn’t ridden since the beginning of summer and ever since TriStar had picked up my bike and serviced it last week my bike has been begging to be taken out. Tonight was his lucky night.
I was walking Geo and noticed the weather was just amazing so when I got home I suited up and went out for a ride. Salmiya was deserted and I had all the streets to myself so I took full advantage and rode up and down at my pace enjoying my time. I was a bit rusty so I felt a lot more comfortable riding alone with no traffic just in case I made a mistake.
One thing I realized, the weather is a lot nicer in shorts and a tshirt. My full bike gear which includes thick riding pants and a thick riding jacket kinda made things hot but it still felt great riding. I think I will do this every night, its very peaceful and mind clearing.

Yesterday I tried out a friend’s 999, it was amazing. This was my first Ducati experience, the handling is unbelievable. Smooth as warm butter!

As long as you don’t race full speed along the Gulf road at Mangaf at 1 a.m. in the morning, about three times up and down, I wish you all the fun in the world ;)!
And the weather IS great right now :) Love it!

Take the road all the way to Al kout mall and go up to the open air rooftop infinity pool at Rotana hotel, take a bed and order something to munch and enjoy the view.

Mark,
I think the time has come for you to stop using the word “amazing” to describe everything from pizza to airline schedules. The English lexicon is replete with synonyms for this overused adjective. Choices include agreeable, pleasant, delightful, nice, wonderful, fabulous, marvelous, splendid, incredible, stunning, spectacular, brilliant, magnificent, superb, fantastic, excellent, and great.
Good luck

Fabulous, marvelous, splendid, magnificent? come on dude you want me to sound like an English play? No thanks, I would rather stay with my 2 word vocabulary instead of trying to sound all brilliant and wonderful ;)

Wanna race? :P btw watch out..today i went to my friend’s house in Qernata (Qerna6a) while i was driving like 80 km on the fourth ring road there was this stupid guy driving a crappy Mustang LX he was doing like 120-130 ..suddenly a light came from back of a parked car..it was a white flash from a hidden cam inside a car..i realized to was there to take picx of speeding people..(it wasn’t the typical Suzuki Vitara car.. i think it was a Grand Marques) ..be careful. I have also seen this car a week ago when i was going back to home from Bnaider.
