The Arabian
Quest Challenge 2005 is the first ever mountain bike and
trekking race in the region. This incredibly challenging
race covers an ascent and descent of Jebel Bil Aysh (1921m
altitude) from Wadi Al Bih in Ras Al Khaimah, (150m
altitude), covering rocky and unmarked trails. Part of the
race will be done on mountain bike and some will be covered
on foot.
The concept is
simple: teams of two leave the starting line and navigate
through mandatory control points (Control 1, 2, etc…) to the
summit and back to the finish line as quickly as they can.
