The UAE Tour gets underway on Sunday, February 21 and will run through February 27. Not only has the race been a staple in the cycling world the last few years, but it hopes to be the start of a more steady and regular racing schedule that is now getting underway again after a rocky past year.

Fans and riders are ready to get back to a certain normalcy in the sport again and the UAE Tour looks to be the beginning of that. In 2020, the race came just as the COVID-19 outbreak was spreading around the world. Past winners and superstars alike are ready to compete in this premier Middle East cycling race.

Be sure to follow along as riders hit the five stages and journey through mountains and other desert terrain. It should prove to be exciting.
