The Coast To Coast Challenge

One of the UAE’s toughest cycle events returns, a 206km ride from Sharjah to Fujairah

What’s the farthest you’ve ever travelled on a bike? 50km? 100km? If that’s not far enough for you, then you’ll want to sign up for one of the UAE’s toughest events – the Coast To Coast Cycling Challenge, a 206km ride from Sharjah to Fujairah. It’s an event popular with cyclists from Dubai, Abu Dhabi and beyond with more than 300 riders taking part in 2016.

The ride takes place November 17 and crosses the country via the E102, and heads for the hills of Hatta before finishing with a 60km segment along the Eastern coastline towards Fujairah. Included in the Dhs550 entry fee are support cars and feed stations along the route, a barbecue at the finish line to help you refuel and a Coast To Coast-branded cycling jersey to show off your achievement.
