The winter edition of the event still begins from the coastal Sharjah lagoons, through the stunning Hajar Mountains across to the east coast and north all the way to Fujairah to your final destination, Le Meridien Al Aqah – the route stretches 165km with approx 1700m of elevation along smooth tarmac roads, winding through dunes, over mountain climbs and along the beautiful east coast to the finish where you can enjoy the fine sandy beaches of Fujairah. There is no Abridged ride for this event. All riders ride from the start to the finish. (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).
