The world motor-bike tour of the Australian Allan Roberts has ended unexpectedly - his bike was stolen in the United Arab Emirates.
Roberts has told that he simply did not find his bike on the parking after a visit to the restaurant at the border between the Sharjah and Ajman Emirates. He is really sad, because after he has crossed Sahara, Nigerian jungle, mountain districts of Ethiopia, populated by the quarreling Somalians Djibouti, Yemen provinces with agressive tribes, he has lost his old "Honda", manufactured in the last century in the civilized and safe Emirates.
The police of several UAE Emirates intensively looks for the bike that has crossed 37 countries at three continents and made 65 thousands kilometers in 18 months.
Allan Roberts has planned to visit Iran, Russia, Mongolia and the countries of the South-Eastern Asia after the Emirates and to end his trip in Indonesia. Already for two days the Australian traveler along with the police of the Emirates combs the roads hoping to find his two-wheeled friend. He still hopes to see the snowy Russia, but already prepares his flight back to Australia. |
