Dubai Tour kicked off yesterday and continues until February 10.

Under the patronage of HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai who himself is a keen rider, the best cyclists from all over the world have travelled to Dubai for this one, including Mark Cavendish who got off to a shaky start yesterday and Marcel Kittle (who hit headlines last year after getting involved in a bust-up mid race).

It is the fifth year of Dubai Tour on the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) calendar, a governing body that oversees international cycling events.
