Distance and timing basis
The recorded total and the leg detail need reconciliation. Inspect the leg notes before using this record for timing or navigation. Stops, delays, approach and any separate return travel add time. Basis: planning record, not independently verified geometry.
Reading history stays on this device. My road watch requires a separate selection; opening it does not subscribe this ride.
Distances and riding times are planning figures. Check local closures and conditions before you ride.
Waypoint introductions and full write-ups
1. Janabiyah
Bahrain is a small island, but it has been important for a very long time. Under the name Dilmun, it was a trading centre of the Bronze Age, linking Mesopotamia with the Indus valley, and the fresh water that bubbles up from beneath the seabed made it a stop for ships. Janabiyah lies on the western side of the main island, near the coast road, a village among low, flat land where date palms, farms and new housing meet the edge of the desert.
