Riding the Himalaya

September 10, 2011 by · Leave a Comment
 

Its been a while since i did any summer riding, and due to the unrest in Syria and Egypt we had to cancel our Euro trip this year…the only way to reach Europe is thru Syria or by ferry from Alexandria, Egypt.

Five of my friends decided to look for an alternative and they ended up joining an organized 11 day Himalayan bike tour thru Spiti Valley, Manali all the way to Leh – the capital of the former Himalayan kingdom-  on an 500cc Royal Enfield.

The guys left yesterday to New Delhi and from the outskirts of  Delhi they will start their 11 day Himalayan adventure reaching altitudes of over 5500 meters on some of the toughest biking routes in the world.

The nice thing about this trip is being a one way trip,  so they won’t be riding the motorcycles back.. they will be flying back to Delhi once they reach Leh.

I will try to post updates about the trip if i get any, but i believe the updates will be very little considering the route and the lack of communication tools.

Bikers still ride solo :)

FASTtelco are organizing a gaming tournament on September 3rd at the Regency hotel, lots of local teams and some famous ones from Bahrain and KSA like DvLZGaME and Zpadnet will be participating in the event.

Unfortunately there are no racing games in the tournament, am not sure why they ignored racing games but am sure lots of people play racing games like MotoGP, Need For Speed and DiRT .

Registration for the tournament is today @ 8PM, check these videos for more details.  Read more

Best Of Ramadan

The title might be misleading but am referring to TV commercials.

Every Ramdan most of the local banks and telecom companies air their new TVCs’ on local satellite TV channels, a trend that picked up around 7-8 years ago when watching satellite channels was the thing to do -for some reason- in Ramadan !

Now with all the smart phones, ipads, social media and other micro communication tools, does anyone watch TV anymore, you know like we used to in the old days ?  like a family spending the evening around TV watching a movie or a TV show form a satellite channel.

I think we still do but the numbers are very little and doesn’t justify the money spent for advertising on these channels, i believe the internet has morphed satellite TV and turned it into an entertainment tool for kids and the elderly…those who aren’t using the internet yet or have nothing better to do on their laptops, ipads or smart phones.

Personally i only watch the news from satellite channels like Jazeera, Arabia, BBC, and sports channels like ESPN and Eurosport, i also watch movies that i download. But whenever i feel like wasting time i watch satellite TV, i just keep flipping between channels until i feel dizzy and go to sleep.

What i wanted to say is that i have watched almost all of ramadan TV commercials form NBK, Zain, GulfBank etc. either on my laptop or on my iphone and believe it or not i haven’t seen any of them on TV yet.

If you would like to watch them visit Blog 37,i think he posted all of them :-* فُـله .
