Nothing has been officially announced yet, but the rumor is that the organizers, who are notoriously poor in general, didn’t coordinate with the government timely and aren’t being given permission to close the roads for the bike leg. The authorities are taking a harder line with road closures these days. The Dubai marathon was forced to change its location and course from in the city on the beach road like usual to out at the Expo 2020 site where road traffic isn’t an issue. They announced this the other day. The race is next Sunday. Seems they didn’t start working with the government in time either.Wait, why isn't it happening?!!!??!?
