Take note if you’re hitting the roads this Friday…
The 10th annual Spinneys Dubai 92 Cycle Challenge is taking place on Friday November 29 and many of Dubai’s main roads will be effected. The 100 kilometre challenge starts and ends at Dubai Autodrome in Motorcity, and travels through Hessa Street, down to Discovery Gardens and up to the Global Village exit.
This year, the cycling challenge is expecting 2,500 cyclists to take part and as such, the route was extended to accommodate them for the race. The annual challenge aims to raise money for Al Jalila Foundation.
