The Al Qudra Cycling Track in Dubai has made a new Guinness world record of “longest continuous cycling path”, the record-giving body announced. The Al Qudra Cycling Trak spans 80.6 km, surpassing the previous world record registered in 2020 for a 33 km cycling track. The record was announced at the start of the track in the Al Qudra area in the southeast of Dubai by a representative of Guinness World Records. Maitha bin Adai, CEO of Traffic and Roads Agency, unveiled a marble plaque engraved with the Guinness World Records logo installed at the starting point of the Al Qudra Cycling Track, near Last Exit Al Qudra. The plaque is inscribed with the record and the Roads and Transport Authority logo.
Dubai aims to have total cycling lanes spanning 819km by the end of 2026. It is part of directives of Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, to make Dubai a bicycle-friendly city.
The Al Qudra Cycling Track passes across extensive sand dunes and lakes that render it attractive and liked by cycling professionals and enthusiasts globally. The track runs over wide parts of Al Qudra area, which spans about 188 square kilometres.
The continuous cycling track has sub-tracks that extend 135 km along with the original track. The track is equipped with emergency call phones distributed over 30 points along the track, in addition to shaded places with seats, restaurants and toilets as well as bike rental shops. ICA/Expat Media
