Three races, three distances, ranking on overall time, ninety kilometers of Olympic Cycling Track time trialing to shake off the working day, no better way to get the new road racing season started.

• Venue: Olympic Cycling Track, Lusail car park
• When: 13th & 27th October, 10th November. First start 6pm
• Race format: Individual time trial over 20km, 30km, 40km & 10km for youth categories

Handicaps are a great introduction to bunch racing. Riders are set off in small groups and collaborate to outrun stronger riders set off later. The slowest go first, the fastest last and, if the handicapper gets it right, everyone finishes together.

Further information coming soon.

IMPORTANT: our ability to run a bunch race in this format will depend on the current corona virus restrictions

Registration opening after second race

Qatar's main sportive of the year. Having been cancelled in March, every cyclist in Qatar is hoping it can go ahead at this new November date.

UFMBQ have built an all new course for the first of this year's true XCO races. With Open, Novice, Youth and age group categories, there is something for everyone. All wrapped up in the legendary UFMBQ race atmosphere.

Registration not yet available

Situated just to the north of the city lies Qatar's original MTB playground. Resembling a scene from Mad Max, this is now the home of the more extreme urban and BMX rider but the XCO course is suitable for all and it is here that the first marathon of the year will take place.

Details coming soon

We don't mind admitting we are very excited to bring something new to the MTB scene this year - a stage race over three days.
