Unexpected rainfall changed everything - SAUDI ARABIA | S8, EP38
Hail, Saudia Arabia Season 8 - Eps. 38 Good morning Internet it is 8 o'clock in the morning and welcome back to the channel Welcome here in Hail in Saudi Arabia There are very clear rules in this hotel Absolutely no smoking The plan, the plan. The plan for today Is to explore this area, so from Hail where I am now I'm gonna ride straight into the desert Make a loop and then I'm going to try and stay the night somewhere over here Okay Let's go! Because I have a big day ahead of me Uh, but I'm already leaving a little bit later than I actually wanted because.. I am on my way but I still need to have breakfast They didn't have uh, breakfast here and it's uh, 470 km for today Including a lot of deserts so.. I better get going, I also still need to fuel up Entirely Before I go At the same time I don't want to leave without breakfast And I found a place here That I ate yesterday morning That does good food So.. Make a quick stop, eat something Uh, which one was it again? It was here Yes Good morning How are you? - Good So this is for breakfast So you sit down in one of these cubicles and then they put this on the floor And I am eating foul, which is my absolute favorite Oh, that was delicious I absolutely love foul Foul is made of uh.. fava beans
The last time I ate a lot of foul was years ago When I was working with an Egyptian crew They always ate it for breakfast So I was always eating with them There is the teapot roundabout again Honestly, the coolest roundabout I've ever seen I love it Wow, that's a cool building I wonder what that is? Oh, there's a castle there as well I really like how in Saudi Arabia there is still so much old You know, if you compare it to the Emirates, to Dubai or Abu Dhabi It's almost everything is just brand new right? Very modern But here in Saudi you really get that mix still So there are a lot of modern buildings but they also still renovate and preserve the old ones Here we go. I'm heading straight towards these mountains I think I'm going to go in between there somewhere Okay, well before I really go down here Just going to do a quick oil check 'Cause I've been doing.. What would it be now? Well over 1500 kilometers since the oil change I just want to check The oil level To be safe Seems a bit low Let me put a little bit in there Oh, this route is amazing Right Stunning Wow I am in paradise! Look at this Oh fantastic What an amazing track It's very.. rocky though I don't really know the name of this place I just saw on the map that there were mountains here And then I saw a small track so I thought Let's try this one But I didn't know it was going to be this good I just have the same dilemma as well every time, so far I'm going on dirt in Saudi Is about my tire pressure 'Cause.. I would like to have it a little lower So it's easier to get through the sand or like this thick gravel But it is so rocky And you get all these sharp rocks everywhere That the risk of a puncture is just too big And.. I rather not change the tube..
In here If I can avoid it Oh, but Frankie is handling this terrain just.. So great Wow Look at this This is amazing This way, I think Blah Oeh Ha ha ha Those are some big rocks Blah There's a donkey running away from me there See? It's a donkey I think it's maybe a wild one Or at least uh.. It broke free See, there has been water here Not too long ago That's unexpected Must have been.. Really bad or like.. Wash out very easily or something To put concrete here Surprising Oh well Nice though! Probably would have been a very tricky part Hee hoo! I think I'm almost out of this gorge now But you can already see it widening up All of that on the left here is deep, deep gravel It's almost impossible to ride through So I'm trying to kind of stay over here But that probably ends here Hmm, so I have to go.. Through the gravel then Oh, this is terrible Wah! Oh, this is..
Really tricky On two wheels With a 4x4 this is.. No issue Yeah, I need to go like super high speed But even then It's.. Really quite tricky You get all the ruts Yes Even when you're standing this is really difficult To the right Oeh ah! Oef Ha ha ha Oh! Ohhh Ahh! Oh Water! Didn't see that coming Maybe this will lead around it Or not? No idea where this is going I need to take some gear off I am boiling hot It has been just really quite chilly lately in Saudi so I've been putting all my layers on But this is really.. this is really hard work Okay, that's better Interesting how much water there is here right? Hello! Morning! Hi! From where are you? How are you? Good and you? What are you doing here? Riding Where are you going? Where are you going? We're going.. just watching the place Those are people not from Hail My friends they're from.. - Ah!
You are from America? Holland - Holland, oh! To Saudi in moto Wow, amazing! Through Türkiye, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi How do you like Hail? Yeah, beautiful! Really? Ah, today I was riding there and oh! So beautiful Thank you I really like it Nice to meet you Bye Oh, there's another car Behind me Another car full of women Oh, there's more water here Woo! This actually looks good quite deep Or not? A little bit Oh, this is.. Quite a bit more challenging than I imagined Or at least it's a whole different type of challenge I thought it was going to be sandy Very rocky Oh Frankie! You're getting a bit of a beating To be continued... I'm stuck Oh oh, no no no Because the water? Something electronics or what? I don't know
