Cycling enthusiasts in Dubai can register for a community cycling initiative by the Dubai Police, which is completely free.
Titled ‘Train with Dubai Police’, the initiative will be held every Wednesday in April. It involves training around the four-kilometre international circuit at Dubai Autodrome in a controlled environment.
Who Can Sign Up for ‘Train with Dubai Police’?
Fitness enthusiasts can enjoy an expansive space without any other vehicles blocking their route. It’s not just cyclists, runners, and rollerbladers who can also participate.
Dubai Autodrome has confirmed that their circuit follows strict safety standards; trained marshals and medical services will be present throughout to ensure that all participants have a safe, fulfilling training session.
To participate, registration is required beforehand as spaces are limited, and the track is open for sessions from 7 pm to 10 pm.
The site also offers guided bootcamp sessions that combine functional training with conditioning to enhance the experience. Equipment made of real kart parts will be used to test strength and endurance. These sessions are held at 6.30 pm and 7.30 pm.
You can register on Dubai Autodrome’s official website.
Requirements to Participate
Dubai Autodrome has emphasised a list of rules all participants must adhere to to ensure a safe, comfortable training environment for everyone:
- Access the track only for cycling, running, walking, jogging and rollerblading
