Not quite bike rack in Dubai

While I firmly believe that bike rack is universal - I can't wait until someone goes to Antarctica and takes a photo of white bike rack there - sometimes, it can be elusive. 

Exhibit A: Dubai. Brought to you by one D. Sams, who apparently didn't see any applicable bike rack while skydiving over the city like a crazy man.  Which he is.

Here are a couple of photos of the exotic landscape of the United Arab Emirates state...minus the real bike rack. That said, lots of barricade aplenty! And lots of variety. And color. Lots of color!

Then again, 'beige' in a desert land area is probs not the best idea. Just saying.

Anyway, back to the bike rack. Yes, this is not bike rack in the traditional sense (of this blog, anyway) - you can't rack anything to the stuff at the left, and the bike rack below actual, REAL bike rack that's affixed to the ground. But forgive me for indulging - I know, the point of this blog is to demonstrate bike rack around the world, but hey, you also need to see what doesn't quite qualify, right? Right. So everyone, calm down.

That's right, calm down, all four of you who read this.

Can I just point out you can SEE the sand in this photo? I mean, whoa.

Below, some candy-cane striped something - I guess you'd have to stripe your equipment to prevent yourself from running into it.

A few more photos for your viewing pleasure. Who needs to see the Burj Kalifa when you have this blog?

 

Well, I'm sorry to say, considering there is no real bike rack here, it gets ZERO bicycles out of four bicycles, but points for saying that I was able to get a post about Dubai out of it.
