Where specialty coffee and cycling culture comes to life.

“I am absolutely thrilled to introduce The Service Course experience to a whole new community of cyclists, sharing our trademark passion for specialty coffee and inspiring group rides with like-minded riders, coming together from all corners of the world. I’m really looking forward to spending more time in the UAE connecting with friends old and new, and am excited to support the growth of cycling in the region, working closely with our fantastic partners at Wolfi’s, located within Abu Dhabi Cycling Club.” - Simon Gerrans, The Service Course CEO

The Service Course Abu Dhabi, Al Hudayriyat Island, open daily 7am-10pm.

Friday 25th October (V.I.P Day)

The day kicks off with an exclusive guest ride, taking you through some of our favourite local gravel paths.

Post-ride, you'll enjoy an authentic Catalan lunch before you head back and get ready for the evening's events.

From 6pm, you'll be invited back to the shop for the V.I.P presentations which includes some the most recognised and innovative brands and faces in cycling.

As the presentations come to a close, we'll head to the courtyard for tapas, bikes and chats ahead of the big day on Saturday.

The GiRodeo Spirit

Be kind, be respectful, have fun
There are no prizes for finishing first - this is a fun adventure into the wild to be savoured and not rushed
Riders of all abilities are more than welcome and there will be plenty of event support crew out there on the day
Whilst there will be lots of friendly helpers around, please see this as a self sufficient, unsupported ride, carrying everything you might need
It’s important to note just how challenging the GiRodeo “Epic Loop” is - we strongly recommend that this is not the first time you attempt to ride a gravel route of this magnitude
In terms of bikes, we suggest a gravel bike with minimum 40mm tyres
Please get in touch if you have any questions or concerns: girona@theservicecourse.cc
