Hi,
I want to ride all the way and only have to cross the English channel. I'm looking at Jordan,Syria,Turkey,Bulgaria, across to the Adriatic and follow the coast road up to Venice then across the Alps into France to the channel tunnel.
I have ridden up the red sea coast road and was disapointed, it's very flat and you don't see much of the sea. I had to divert over the mountains once through Taif down to Khamis Mushayt, now that is a great road and brilliant views. Have spent twelve years at Khamis and the scenery in the mountains and down to the red sea is great  , now I'm in F***ing  Dhahran and have to find roads with roundabouts to make a ride slightly interesting. It would make life better if we could ride over to Bahrain but they won't let bikes on the causway, you can only trailer them across.
Is it worth a ride into Kuwait ? Is it easy to get in ?
Some of us are going to the Moto GP in Qatar, it's supposed to be a floodlit night race  .
Cheers
Ian
