“A good challenging crit race - Thank you. Well organised event, as always.”

“Excellent Event - Excellent event well organised managed and delivered.. getting better every year... love it.”

“This was one of the best race i joined - This race was perfectly organized.. it was worthed travelling from dubai just to join this race.. ”

“Getting to be habit! - Always a slick event. Standard is getting higher (or I'm getting slower) and the shorter course did NOT detract from a great event. Thanks for the water station halfway - was getting a little warm!”

“I love this event - The race is great, We’re based in Dubai we traveled for this event, and its great... ”

“Fun yet challenging format - As a new rider I definitely found this race to be challenging but had a great time doing it. The blocked course was refreshing and the marshal support was top notch. My only negative comment would be that it would have been nice to have my finisher medal engraved with at least the year. Thanks to the entire staff for a great event. ”

“Great with a different race! - Very well organized and good communication before the race. Perfect closed route! And that you need to do a last minute change due to water leaks, just show you are fully on top of the situation. Very well done! Could be an idea to specify that ladies have their own start 1 min after men. A bit waiting time for the ceremony - but we enjoyed a coffe in the shade and could cheer for the short course I really hope to see more of these criterium races out there - so great with a different race!”

“Nice race great experience - A portalet nearby the start/finish will be welcome addtion for participants and spectators.”

“A very enjoyable race. - This is my favorite event of the year. The new course route adds additional challenges and excitement for riders. For spectators the short looped course meant it was easy to catch all the action and keep up to date with who was leading. A system of different colored background race numbers would allow racers to identify their own category within the peloton which would aid in race tactics. Thanks for an excellent race and hopefully it will continue into the next season. ”

“Great race - Great event. My first ever race and it was very welcoming, safe and fun. ”
