I have taken my bike to DUBAI and this time I have rode around a specifically made bike track called Al-Qudra with my good mate Tom! This track is out in the desert and itโ€™s over 80km long! Iโ€™m also going to show you where we are staying in Dubai and even challenge Tom to a table tennis match!ย ๐Ÿ˜

    Staying on the Dubai theme, we have a golf video going live on the Golfing GK YouTube this Friday, so keep an eye out for that!ย ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

    1. Good to see you out in Dubai Ben! I moved here in august to work in real estate, let me know if you ever need anything whilst you are out here ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ช

    2. is the ride flat and wind-free? would love to take the track bike there and get some hard KMs in. doesn't look like there is much scenery but just means pain cave is reached sooner

    3. I find the Garmin sleep score to be poor. Mine doesn't track my sleep and wake up times well at all. It was still tracking me asleep 20 mins after I had woken up, 5 mins of which I was up and walking around the house.

      Makes me question other readings such as HRV.

    4. Hi Ben and team, I would highly recommend Chapman's Peak Drive on the western cape peninsula, Cape Town, South Africa! One of the best views in the world! Would be amazing to watch your content in my home country as well as bringing focus to this incredible city! Keep up the great work!

    5. Ben you should come to sweden and Cycle the famous Vรคtternrundan. 315km around a big lake. If you havent already done it ofcourse

    6. Sad to see the complete sell out to an awful country as UAE, where human rights are completely lost. People are getting imprisoned in that country just for trying to live what is considered normal lives in your country, England.
      Money is obviously everything to some, shame on you

    7. Lost interest after Ben went to wrexham, the content got really poor with him just chatting. So glad to have proper cycling content back!
