Facts:
Total journey time: 2 hours.
Total cycling time: 1Hour & 34 minutes.
Total number of Kilometers: 28 KM.
Total number of the team: 4
I give Ali Barakat a credit this time as he is the first one to come, but when Mohammed came late today I thought we won’t be able to reach our target, specially that temperature started to increase and we expected it to be a hot day. But the more cycle the more we wanted to go further.
To cut it short, as I want to go and have some sleep if I can !!! The we’ve started from North Sehla passing by Bu Guwa, then Qadam, passing the streed to Karrana then beside Jidd Al Hajj to Jannusan, then Barbar to Duraz, taking some photos in Abu Subeh beach, going to Budayea. We’ve had a quick break looking at the beach and the fort there, then back through Bani Jamarah then Sar, Magaba, Al hajar then Abu Saibea, then back to Qadam, Abu Guwa and then Sehla.
It’s a great journey, I liked it…and guess what? We didn’t get tired, specially after having the lemon juice in Budayea… here are some pictures…. With no comments.

Hi all,
Well, I feel like talking today so if you prefer not to read my lovely post and jump directly to the pictures… feel free to scroll down.
The path that we took today was planned for long time ago, by M.Folath and me. So finishing it was an accomplishment to us. Before I start with demonstrating the path, I would like to welcome a new joiner in the group Jassim, it is very interesting to see how our group is getting bigger!!
Back to the path, we rode our cycles for 29 Kilometers. Starting form Al-Dair, going cross Amwaj Islands, through Alhid highway. Where we crossed Shaikh Khalifa causeway and turn to Juffair after that. In Juffair we took a fast break in Starbucks. After recharging, we’ve got on our treks and start cycling, the interesting part of this path that we did not take the same road back home. Instead we went through Marina Park, to Bahrain National Museum, crossing AlMuharraq Old causeway. Then we went though Al-Bussaiteen village, around the Runway, until we reached Al-Dair, our stop point.
The trip was amazing, its a petty Mahmood Aladraj and Ali Abdulrasool could not join. Hopefully they will in the coming trips.
I will leave you with the pictures now….enjoy!!

Hi everyone,
I am really tired and not in a mood to write a post, but yesterday’s trip was interesting, we started from Al dele3 complex (Next to Batelco Hamala), reaching strange places where we’ve gone behind waqif souq and reached Demestan Abu Rummana masjid then back to Hamala then Jasrah…
Anyway, my son Ahmed was planning to follow me while I was putting my bicycle in the car, but I ran away from him.
the picture talks about itself..

I was suppose to right this post last night, but I came home too late…
We plan was to start our trip early morning, waking up at 4:30aM and then start the trip at 5:00 AM, I’ve called all the guys, no one woke up !!!!!
That when I decided to create this website !!! which was ready by 8:00AM starting from buying the domain and then adding 1st of May post…
I wont make it long, to recover, we decided to go out at night last night … from Sehla to Costa Adliya..
The above two photos are in front of Riviera Palace, North Sehla, very creative architecture in Bahrain….
moving from there and meeting Ali Barakat who joined us for the first time, we’ve gone through Adhari park, till Zing, Salmaniya, then to Adliya…where we stopped in Costa.. The path looks like below:
And the best times are in Costa were we had rest..

The next day Folath and me decided to change the path and ride for a further distance. I took my bicycle to Folath home and gone from Al-Dair to Busaiteen, cross Muharraq old causeway until we reached Novetel Hotel where we stopped to take couple of pictures and continued our way through Marina Park. Riding next to the sea is special.
We continued until we reached Starbucks Juffair, and as usual relaxed a bit, then rode ours treks back to Folath home.
The trip was around 26 KM.. Have a look at the pictures and feel free to add comments if you wish…
Thats the path we took that day:

It all started from Dair/Muharraq next to M.Folath home, and continued all the way to Bahrain City Center. In our way back we stopped in starbucks in the Diplomatic area, relaxed for 15 min in and continued our way back to Muharraq.
Any way, I will leave you with the pix now:

At 5:00 AM Friday 1st of May, Mohammed came into my house with his bike, and we started of from my house and gone through Sehla and Qadam till we reach Abu Saibea where Country mall is,
we met Ali who joined us in Costa coffee and we continued moving towards Jannusan sea through karranah then Jannusan villages, it’s very nice to be between the nice places around that area. especially in the morning.
Anyway, the journey was around 20 Kilometers… you can see it the route in Google earth as below:
As a first artickle, I didn’t plan to take a lots of photos, but sooner or later, I will add more photos, here are some photos I’ve taken with my iphone camera, I hope they are clear..
That was Mohammed AlMakna and Ali A.Rasool
And here I am:

Even though we’ve been biking for the past two months going around Bahrain and discovering many areas in more details, but last night I thought of creating a website for us to communicate, plan our journeys every week and take some shots of the places we visit and post it all in here…
As we’ve started with low profile, we’ve started with two bikers two months ago, and yesterday we became 4 and hopefully today we will be 5 bikers, we are currently in the process of formalizing it and we are accepting more bikers to join us, whether you are an expert or beginner , you are very welcome. just use your bike or buy new if you don’t have one, and write to us or call us.
If you are part of a bikers group in Bahrain or outside Bahrain and wan’t to join both groups, we have no issue with that… the more people we are, the more fun it gona be..
We will decide on the new location of next week soon. So be ready…
