The Man, The Machine...

Freaky Chakra
By Freaky Chakra

Ladies and Gentlemen of QL, this might just be the first known, stationary picture of the man, simply known as 'Man on the Car' or 'Man on the Bike'.

Was lucky enough to run into him at the Doha Sheraton the other day. His name is Ahmed Al Jaber and he has four bikes and cars each at his place. He's a gentleman and flashed the thumbs up and graciously posed for the photograph.

He's a swell guy. And i'm gonna visit his place and watch those wheels. If you're interested in more pictures (anytime in the next two months, sigh), then watch this space on QL.

I've seen him a few times before. My dad told me that when this guy was young he used to call himself "Al-Muqana'a" it means the man with the mask, or something like that. He used to spray paint his nickname of walls.
