In December, The Cycle Hub – Arla Protein Race Team launched with a new cycling kit for the upcoming season and a number of changes to the roster.


Cycle Hub “The Cycle Hub – Arla Protein Race Team is continuing to grow in strength and we’ve had many great results so far this season. The support of Arla Protein this year will help us immensely, and the new kit from Giordana will make us look and feel great on the start line.


Cycle Hub  UAECycling is continuing to grow in the UAE, and competition is getting tougher – but we have seen many successes for our riders so far and we hope that will continue in 2018.”

The team is constructed of 23 riders, 16 male and 7 female, all cycling competitively within the United Arab Emirates and beyond. Led by team captain Simon Henley, the team have had many notable results in road, triathlon and mountain bike races this season to date.
