Garhoud area is right next to the Dubai International Airport. It's also where the Emirates Aviation College and Training Centre. But the area is perhaps best known for the Dubai Tennis Stadium and its ATP Tournament. And that's exactly where this ride, my first real one in Dubai, starts. Deira is possibly the oldest area in Dubai. Situated on one side of the Creek, it's been the economic centre od the city for decades if not centuries, using the nearby port to its advantage. This is the area best known for its "Souks" or trade districts, but to see those you'll have to wait for the next movie. ;) In this one, I take you by the Deira City Centre mall, around some short streets known only by numbers, but also to the Clocktower, possibly the first landark in Dubai! Then around a bit, to the Creek and the area by the water, all the way to where the Souks begin. A really interesting ride, but still just getting to feel the bike and.. the drivers. Special greeting goes to: people doing things in unconventional way! From any baby's point of view, walking up is extremely unconventional, but why stop there? So, do sports in the sun, eat ice cream in winter and yes, even ride a bike in Dubai! Don't let your life go by just doing what everyone does, in the endless search of greater personal comfort. Get out of that comfort zone and you might be surprised with just how good it can make you feel. Filmed in April 2014.
