In an inspiring article by The National, the “Ride for Unity: 7 Days/7 Emirates” event is detailed as an extraordinary cycling challenge aimed at promoting tolerance, diversity, and sustainability across the UAE. From January 6 to 12, a diverse group of athletes will cycle through all seven emirates, beginning in Dubai and ending in Abu Dhabi.
Sareh Ameri, managing director of Ride for Unity, highlights the event’s mission: “The UAE is a living, breathing role model of our values of unity, diversity, tolerance and sustainability.” This challenge emphasizes the power of sport in uniting people from different backgrounds and fostering a sense of community.
The ride will include stops at cultural and educational institutions, business forums, and charitable organizations. Participants will engage in activities such as planting mangroves and visiting special needs centers, showcasing the values of inclusion and social responsibility.
One participant, Justin Levene, shared his perspective: “We have an incredibly diverse team that has been brought together for this event, and though our lives may be different, we are all unified through sport and the immense positive impact that it has had on our lives.” This sentiment reflects the core purpose of the ride – to celebrate unity through shared experiences and challenges.
