Spinneys Dubai 92 Cycle Challenge is back for its 16th edition. One of the most anticipated fitness events in the city, the race is held in partnership with Dubai Sports Council, and brings together serious cyclists, hobby riders, families, and teams across multiple categories.
The main 92km race is scheduled for Sunday, February 15, 2026, and will take place at Expo City Dubai. Major city roads will close off for the event, giving cyclists a rare chance to take on Dubai’s wide-open streets — traffic-free.

Younger riders also have a chance to participate in Junior Rides on Saturday, February 14. The organisers prepared several short-distance races for kids of every age and endurance:
- 1 km tiny tots ride
- 2 km kids ride
- 3 km, 6 km, and 9 km junior short rides
And if you’re ready to a real challenge, join Aster BIG 5, a series of 5x cycling events. It consists of 4 build-up rides (35, 45, 65, and 85 km each) and the main event (92 km race).
Those looking to race in a group can also join the Aster BIG 5 team challenge. Teams can be mixed-gender, with a minimum age of 16. Once your team registers, the line-up stays fixed across the series.
