Badman in Egypt
« on: July 31, 2008, 10:56:11 PM »
Shane Badman wrote a story about his time in Egypt for you. Check it out:

"A few months ago a position was advertised on Global-Flat for a chance to do shows & demos in Egypt.  I had been living in England for the past year & a half & after that time I was keen to look for new places to visit.  A chance to live & ride in Egypt would be perfect, not to mention the constant sun & hot weather – always needed by any Australian away from home!

After sending off my riding profile & followed by several phone calls I was asked if I’d be interested to come down for a few months.  Having already decided.."

Hey Shane ! Crazy men ! I know exactly what you feel at this moment, because actually I'm in the U.A.E for over 2 month now and I ride shows here as well. I have a lot of fun, very hot weather (today 49 degrees :-) ), nice beachs and my feeling is like a BMX-pioneer because nobody of the locals saw never before flatland or general BMX :-)
I wish you all the best, enjoy your time in Egypt.

I send you some photos of my daily crowd



It is an amazing feeling to ride in front of this audience :-)



the very famous city Dubai in U.A.E



daily warmup before the shows
p.s. it is a small place and sometimes i love the handrail  :rolleyes:



Best reguards from Abu Dhabi to Egypt.

heya Daniel
this is Mutt
damn dude , sounds like you are having fun in the U.A.E
and the Northern African countries are dead hot there and i
bet you ride in the evenings and do shows like Shaney boy does.

i could not ride in such heat and even 35C at night is too hot
for me to ride in! 49c is like 120F and 35F is like 96F.

i am comfortable in our temps lately of 30-33C and 12-14C
and that is good riding weather for me!

Yeah, A few of the guys told me about you - think they met you at Hedkandi maybe? Where I was riding was at the Marina, it's close to Ministry.  I was there during that time you visited & riding pretty much everyday..
