Long, empty, arrow-straight road into the desert to the golden fort. The riding is easy; the challenge is heat, wind and staying alert.

Mostly smooth
Mostly good highway through open desert with little traffic, but crosswinds are strong and sand can drift onto the road. Camels, cattle and army trucks appear out of nowhere. Fill up whenever you pass a pump.
