‘Ride with police’: Dubai police launch weekly cycling initiative at Autodrome

Dubai Police have launched a new cycling initiative that brings residents onto the track alongside officers in a structured, fitness-focused setting. The programme, titled “Ride with Police”, began on Wednesday at Dubai Autodrome in Dubai Sports City and will run every week through April. The sessions offer a controlled environment where participants can cycle safely while taking part in a community-led activity. The initiative is part of ongoing efforts to encourage healthier routines and promote active lifestyles through organised events. It also creates an informal space for residents to engage with police personnel outside of routine interactions. A key feature of the programme is the involvement of Dubai Police’s professional cycling team. Participants can ride alongside trained cyclists, observe their techniques, and interact with them directly, adding a practical dimension to the experience. By combining fitness with community engagement, the initiative is expected to encourage regular participation while strengthening connections between residents and law enforcement.
