PR as always, excellent work, a very informative and pleasurable read. I will be checking in frequently.
Thanks for the heads up and keep up the great work of getting the city slickers of the UAE out of the malls and into the outdoors.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I hope through initiatives like uaeoffroaders and weekenduae people can gain an appreciation of just how awesome the UAE territory actually is.

You know, I'm putting up a link to uaeoffroaders right now - although very different, one's a forum of an off-roading community going on trips and mine's just a blog with trip ideas, they kind of go together. Someone at weekenduae may think it would be a great trip but have no idea who to go with or how to make sure they get home safe.

EDIT: check out bottom right corner at http://weekenduae.com/2012/04/30/trip-t ... w-touareg/! :)

Is it possible to cpnfirgure your blog in such a way that people can sign up or leav their email addresses and then whenever you update the blog we all get an email.

Other blogs have this and it helps keep everyone updates regularly

Hmm, well, good suggestion, thanks - I appreciate it.

It's not quite my intention... I wasn't aiming to develop a membership, like forums do; more like an online magazine that people can drop in and find interesting stuff. But I get your point. Let me think about it.

My plan was to update it at the beginning of every month with a fresh trip and I expected interested people to remember to come by.. but I suppose a reminder would be a good idea.. <PR thinking hard>

Thanks JC 8) Baniyas Mafia! LOOOOL I have great fun with the Baniyasi boyz here at uni! One guy made my old '82 Patrol an honorary member of r00000007! driving group by sticking a sticker almost the size of the windscreen on the windscreen! 8) I'm like: "how am I supposed to see?" he shrugs, doesn't matter...

Wasif, I'm adding a feed so who wants to can leave their email and receive update notices, thanks for the idea :)
