Cyclist hits out at desert daytrippers and their trash

This content was originally posted in 7DAYS UAE website at: Cyclist hits out at desert daytrippers and their trash As a regular cyclist using the Al Qudra cycling track I see people streaming out to the desert over weekends, and more so during this past long weekend. What never ceases to amaze me is the attitude of some of these weekend warriors. While there are very clear signs all over the place the prohibits the entry of vehicles at some places they would actually drive over the sign posts with their 4x4s. And what makes it even worse is the heap of rubbish they leave behind. Why? Why do you not take the things you took into the desert back with you? Do you think the oryx will find eating your plastic bags appetising? It angers me just typing this email and I’m sorry but this type of attitude is appalling. Real human beings respect the law, each others’ property and nature. Anton, Dubai Read the original story at: Cyclist hits out at desert daytrippers and their trash
