21 Cycling+Triathlon Newsletter 30/2006 RIDE ON MONDAY 21.08.06 in   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #217 of 330 |

Hello All, 

 

As there is a public Holiday on Monday 21.8.2006 we plan to cycle on a nice and scenic road with rolling hills from the Shell petrol station near Hatta to Mahdah in Oman. Depending on the temperature we do 80-120 km in one group with an average speed of 30 km/hr.

You can not get lost. It is a roundtrip. There are no long Mountain passages.

Uwe is driving the escort car with water and repair kits.

Leave Dubai at 5 am on your own towards Hatta. After about 50 min you reach a roundabout with the Shell petrol station on the right side 15 km before Hatta .That’s the meeting point. We start at 6 a clock and it takes about 4 hours to finish the trip.

If you have the 3rd Edition of the off-road explorer see pages 196 (yellow road) and page 131 note f.

 

For more Info call Juergen on 050 656 3490 or E Mail jweidig@...

 

 

 I would like to remind all the riders that the idea of the ride is to enjoy cycling in a group and this means to ride in a respectful way and to obey the rules of the Dubai Roadsters Riding Group. (Please see and read the attachment)

Please remember we are doing this for fun and it is not a race or competition.

We have riders from different cultures and nations in our group and we should treat each other in a very respectful way.

 

I have attached an Emergency contact Form and I would like to ask you if you can fill it out and send it back to us and please keep on copy in the saddle back on your bike or in your rear pocket of you jersey.

This from will help us to take the appropriate first aid actions in case of an emergency.

 

 

Mark Brocklehurst did find some interesting sides for some more tips for riding in a group
