Event description
A unique, non-competitive cycle challenge takes you east from the coastal Sharjah lagoons, through the stunning Hajar Mountains across to the east coast of Kalba and then north all the way to Fujairah and your final destination, Le Meridien Al Aqah. (We are still working on the approvals for the short ride into Fujairah, however, until this is received, the ride will finish as per 2023 Spring edition at the Khorfakkan viewpoint and all riders will be transported with their bike to the hotel).
The route stretches 165km with approx 1300m of elevation along smooth tarmac roads, winding through dunes, over mountain climbs and along the beautiful east coast highway to the finish where you can enjoy the fine sandy beaches of Fujairah.
Register before Nov. 4th for the Urban-Ultra Coast to Coast Cycle Challenge 2023 winter and 2024 spring editions and receive a limited edition Urban-Ultra Coast to Coast Cycle Challenge cycling jersey.

- SPEED PODS AND HOW THEY WORK
A ‘speed pod’ is a group of riders riding at a designated speed. The ‘pods’ will be organised based on the km speed you have estimated you will average and have submitted on your registration, so please be honest. Each rider pod (max 45 riders) will start out approx 2 mins apart. Participants wishing to ride in the same ‘pod’ we will do our best to accommodate you, but please ensure you fill in the same TEAM name for each rider on registration, and understand that you must all cycle at the same pace/speed. If you are registered as a lower/higher speed than the majority of the other team members, you will be assigned a speed pod according to your registered speed.
