A Week in The Oman on Motorcycles

[natalie8]

Another pleasant surprise (unlike Dubai) was that the locals are by far the most friendly bunch of people I have ever met. Virtually every single car that you passed would honk and wave at you, if you were stopped at the side of the road people would always stop and ask about your trip and if you needed help with anything. A complete contrast to the UAE!

Yes, it is a nice contrast to the UAE. The people in Oman are amazing!

So you rented in Dubai? How much do they charge? Do they have cheaper bikes available for rent?

Is it possible - and prudent - to ride down to Yemen and then back to Dubai?

No they are our own bikes. You can ride into Yemen and it is meant to be fantastic, but it is a little bit dangerous at the moment.
