I start riding down the Nile river, hoping to go from Abu Sir to Beni Suef. When I reach Dahshur, the police stops me. First, they keep at the checkpoint for 2 hours, before allowing me to continue my way to Beni Suef. Very soon after they released me, the police catches me again, and starts escorting me on my way down South. A few minutes later, they tell me to stop, and they force me to return to the check point where the caught me first. I stay three more hours with the police at the check point, and they finally decide that I have to return to my accomodation in Abu Sir...
Then, the police starts monitoring all my movements through the reception of the guest house where I stay. Two days later, I decide to head down to Beni Suef by taxi, hoping to be able to get rid of the police monitoring in Beni Suef, in order to continue my journey towards southern Egypt. But when I go to Beni Suef, the police keeps monitoring me by calling every 5 minutes my taxi driver, also, they provide me several police escorts all the way to Beni Suef, while there is no danger at all. The taxi driver just hallucinates with what the police is doing with me.
Once I arrive in Beni Suef, the police tells me that I am not allowed to go in the streets of Beni Suef on my own, I have to call the police in order to have a police escort, if I want to go out in the streets of Beni Suef. The hotel manager also does not understand what is going on, and why does the police do that. I finally understand that the police harasses me to make give up on the idea to cycle across Egypt. Nothing makes sense, but I can't do anything against the arbitrary rules set up by the Egyptian police, so I decide to give on cycling in Egypt.
