Biking seems to be a shared familial passion.
My daughter, Christine, 25, started learning to ride a while back, but doesn't have enough time to practise due to her work schedule. My son, Joel, 28, who is a nursing graduate in Chicago, also loves to bike.
We do charity runs, ride through the seven emirates, organise social events for our members and other motorcycle clubs around the UAE ...
Don't go by our tough looks – leather clothes, ponytails and steel-toed boots. We are a bunch of softies!
