There are loads of great places to work out for free in Abu Dhabi.
Whether it’s working up a sweat at the weekly events at Yas Marina Circuit, Zayed Sports City or training for the ADNOC Abu Dhabi Marathon, all the bases are covered.
If you love to cycle, Al Wathba cycling track is one of the top places to go.
You can choose from 8km up to 30km loops, and with it being open 24 hours a day you can arrive whenever you like and hit the track.
Don’t worry if you haven’t got a bike, either and you can hire one from FLS Bikes from Sunday to Thursday between 4pm and 10pm and on Friday and Saturday from 6.30am to 10pm.
A standard aluminium or hybrid bike costs Dhs30 per hour and it’s Dhs60 for carbon bikes.
Plus kids’ bikes are available to hire for Dhs30 and bike trollies can also be rented for Dhs30 per hour, so the whole family can come along.
Helmets are included and there are wasahrooms, changing facilities and lockers are the base.
Just remember to take plenty of water, sunscreen and if you’re planning on doing the full 30km maybe some seat padding wouldn’t be a bad idea, either.
Bike hire from Dhs30. FLS Bikes open Sun-Thu 4pm-10pm; Fri-Sat 6.30am-10pm. Al Wathba Cycle Track open 24 hours, www.flsbikes.com.
