Community XC racing returns to the UAE! Welcome to the XC5 set of UAE National MTB races!
These are the UAE MTB Community organised races, supported by SuperSports, Oakley and UAEMTB with UAE Cycle Federation to provide all the regulation and safety.
This season 2025/2026 we have 5 seperate races making up the set with progressive courses starting at Hatta Wadi Hub, moving on to Fujairah Adventure Park, Dubai Mushrif Park with the Final at Showka! All courses are intermediate level and flowy tracks for everyone to enjoy - we will be publishing the course maps and videos and organising pre-ride visits on Instagram a few weeks before each race so everyone has plenty of time to pratice on each course. This season, all the races are seperate events (not a series).
