.. part 2 of my first day of riding in the area around Muscat, Oman. Shipping of my own motorcycle Basanti is delayed because of a logistical mistake by the airlines. So to keep myself busy (and riding!), I am riding around on a 450 CCM bike with Peter from Oryx Adventures - https://www.oryxadventures.com He organises day-tours and longer tours around Muscat and I'm so glad I found his company. He is showing me the best trails around the mountains that I would have never found by myself! But most importantly, I'm getting that very important off-road training that I've been wanting to do for some time now. There are so many techniques to learn when riding off-road and learning them and practicing them will be valuable for my entire upcoming trip! Riding around on a 450 CCM is quite different from my RE Himalayan but I enjoy it! This bike is almost half the weight (125 kgs) of my Himalayan, but has almost double the power (40 HP!). So you can imagine how much fun it is to ride a bike like that around the wadi's in Oman!
Here she comes going for gold
Afternoon welcome back to the channel. This is part two of riding in the Wadis around Muscat
So we finished the first part of the ride. We are now at Wadi Al Abraheem
Probably say it wrong again
Doesn't matter
And from here we are going to continue
Here she comes going for gold
Fantastic
Sounds really good
Food is delicious by the way
Very nice
You'll see
And I am back in my hotel. It was a super long day
I'm really quite exhausted
But I enjoyed it so much
I just loved the riding
And the scenery was just stunning
I just couldn't get enough of it
I recorded so much of it
Because it was just beautiful
And Peter told me so many techniques
Which are really helpful
Because I said it before
In another video that I didn't
Do any off-road riding before
I had no skills, I never took any courses
Or whatever
And I tried to stand on the pegs
Every now and then so far
But I never really felt comfortable doing that
On rough terrain
I just didn't know the proper techniques
And today he showed me how to do it
What you need to do
Different types of speed
Different types of terrain
How you should go downhill
I just learned so many techniques
Which are really helpful
Because I think I will need that on the next leg of this journey
And to be honest
I don't think I would have been riding around the area
That I went today with Peter
Because I don't think I would have ventured so far
Into the wadis by myself
Because you don't know the tracks
You don't know the terrain
Or where you are going to end up
So I am actually really glad
That I went with Peter
And he showed me some amazing parts
Here around Muscat
So I already asked him
When we can ride again
Because I just want to keep on riding
Until Basanti comes here
Because I don't have anything else to do as well
So I will just try to keep on riding
Every couple of days and make videos
So I really hope you liked this video
If you did, please give me a big thumbs up
And subscribe down below
In the next video, I will be riding again
Somewhere around Muscat but in a new area
So stay tuned for the next video
