Default Top Gear...whalat you waiting for

Local road here in Dubai (well one hour away)

I had the pleasure of driving this a while back, a friend being a rock geek (geologist) helped construct this road through the mountains, and was kind enough to show me the way (it aint easy to find)

Anyway, Jeremy (or Tanner if you are in the US) forget the Alps, forget roads in northern Europe, transblabla pass... this road is incredible!

Ok, ok its a bit dusty, and could do with some cleaning up, but that wont be long before it happens
