Sur Ronster's e-bike tour reaches Dubai, and a KTM takes the dunes

Four weeks into traveling alone, he crosses the Emirates on a Zero DSR/X, tries to stay incognito in traffic and calls a desert sunset ride one of the best of his life.

I Rode My E-Bike to Dubai

Sur Ronster has spent most of his channel's life on electric bikes, so the place he gives his biggest compliment in this upload is telling: the red dunes outside Dubai, on a gas-powered KTM 450, with a guide named Rashid riding beside him.

"I Rode My E-Bike to Dubai" drew about 909,000 views in its first 13 hours. It is the latest Saturday stop on a run that went from London to Paris to India and Nepal, and at the end he says it marks four weeks of traveling internationally entirely alone.

The day starts outside the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi. He rides a Zero DSR/X toward Dubai at sunrise, unusually careful with the throttle: "They got hella rules here," he says, and the speed cameras are everywhere. Along the way he notes that much of the city ahead was built by laborers from much poorer countries.

In Dubai, a view of the Burj Khalifa takes some work. He asks for directions and rides up the Dubai Mall parking structure to see the tower from the roof. Stuck in traffic, he is spotted by a man in a Brazil soccer shirt. "Yeah, we could take a picture, just don't tell anyone I'm here," he replies.

That line lands well with viewers who have followed his recent run of police-themed uploads at home. The top comment jokes that he is now wanted around the world. Others recognize streets they once lived on, or thank him for trying to pronounce Arabic words properly.

Then comes the sightseeing: modified cars outside a Mansory showroom and a jet ski ride, where he fishes a floating plastic bottle out of the water. In the desert, a Raptor 700 quad ends up on its roof before he swaps to the KTM. He also says plainly that he does not believe in using animals for profit.

He keeps riding until the sun goes down. "This is one of the best rides of my life," he says.
