Hello!

I considering the possibility of a career move to Dubai with Emirates Airlines.
I am also a
cyclist and this is a big decision. I like the idea of being able to really go
ride on my days
off and I am not sure how it would be in the Dubai region.

Can anyone tell me about this? Is it possible for a cyclist to safely ride
there? Do you pretty
much have to drive with a bicycle to the open areas in the desert? Are there
serious riders
and groups to ride with? What about riding solo in the desert? Safe? How about
mountain
biking?

Thanks for any answers anyone is able to give!

Please feel free to contact me at cyclist_jim at yahoo dot com!

I would love to hear about the possibilities of actually riding a bike there in
the UAE!

Thanks!
