Just a very short snippet from my February 2010 trip to Oman, as a side trip on my way to from China to Europe.
The highlights included the biggest thunderstorm and flood in 30 years, with some friendly lightning a few hundred metres away. Also included in this personalised package was a beautiful coastal road along some big cliffs and a two day ride over a mountain which was too steep to ride up. We were only 20km from our destination (on our 400km loop) when we were stopped at a military checkpoint and politely taken back over the mountain by the military. We had to ride back 200km to Dubai on the same road haha. At least in the dry this time.
Fun and games...
