Dubai Ride is returning to Sheikh Zayed Road this November
Cycling into the sunset…
The flagship event of the Dubai Fitness Challenge, Dubai Ride presented by DP World, is coming back for a fourth edition this month. Taking place on Sunday, November 12, Sheikh Zayed Road will come alive, not with cars but with an endless amount of cyclists coming together for the emirate’s largest community cycling event.
Organised by Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) and Dubai Sports Council with Presenting Partner DP World, the 2022 edition saw over 34,000 cyclists come together for the annual challenge.
With the support of Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), Sheikh Zayed Road will be transformed into a giant cycling track for the day to host the unique cycling experience.
Cyclists of all ages and abilities – beginners, seasoned professionals, little ones and adults or families, looking to engage in a fun bonding activity together, are invited to participate and witness the iconic skyline of Dubai from a different perspective.
The routes
To accommodate participants of all fitness levels, two routes will be offered.
Ideal for more experienced cyclists, the 12km course starts from the Dubai World Trade Centre and ends at Safa Park and includes a climb over the Dubai Canal Bridge. This route has five different starting points, located at the Museum of the Future, Satwa, Coca-Cola Arena, Business Bay, and the Lower Financial Centre.
