There are quite a few riders in Jeddah, all sorts (SBKs, Harleys, Beemers).

Contact a certain "haroon" on advrider.com He is a regular rider and posts on the forum, but i'm not sure if he is a member here on HUBB.

let me know if you need further help.

well, saudi is infamous for the arrogant/careless driving style all over the middle-east and jeddah seems to be no exception to it, though i would rank Riyadh the worst, Jeddah a close second and Al-Khobar the best by far.

cheers and good luck

Hello the Fast One,

sent zou an email few days ago, asking you for help in getting some informations about the ferry from Jeddah to Port Sudan. Will be in Transit with the bike end of March or beginning of April. I need to know the schedule, prices and if it possible to book in advance.

Over the internet it is quite diffucult to get informations and zou never know if there are outdated or not.

Would be very kind of you, if you can forward those informations.

Thanks,

Jan
