Streets and routes around you
feel free to post pics or vids of routes and streets you drive by and around daily...
I am posting some pics for now. I am looking forward to shooting a video of me driving around those streets, but for now watch some aerial veiws of Dubai roads:
Dubai's streets are like GP tracks: wide, smooth, no blind corners, often looong:
Interchange 4, Sheikh Zayed Road
Interchange 7, Sheikh Zayed Road (now this is a turn yu can go on as fast as yur traction can hold!!)
Sheikh Zayed Road (back-street)
Garhoud Bridge (if link doesn't work, try copy and paste in new window.)
Emirates Road E-11 junction with D-83 (I pass this road daily to work, some 28 miles in 30mins, its much more a joy ride rather than "going to work"
)

mountains and hills yes, it is a nice ride thru the mountain, there is a road we trun left on before you hit lowman, the total ride is about 170 + miles great ride. alot of twisty and swichbacks, I do not know what you mean by circles. unless you are panning down really close they maybe the wartering systems they use out here, we have these big motoise watering pivets out here..
