UCI ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS DOHA 2016 I GENERAL INFORMATION BULLETIN

WELCOME TO DOHA (QATAR)

Qatar has been an independent sovereign state since 1971. It is one of the six members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), the others being Saudi Arabia,

the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain. Qatar has 563 km of uninterrupted coastline. Strategically located at crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa, Qatar combines the at-tractions of a dynamic and forward-looking mo-dern society with the courtesies and traditions of its deeply-rooted culture. As one of the world’s most prosperous and rapidly developing eco-nomies, Qatar has emerged in recent years as one of the region’s most rapidly developing lei-sure destinations. The hospitality industry ranks amongst the world’s best in terms of service and amenities and cultural attractions, shopping, di-ning and recreational and sporting facilities are

first class. In short, Qatar offers the best of both worlds – great business opportuni-ties and great leisure experiences.

The country’s population stands at 2.3 million and its capital city is Doha. Qatar offers a great range of things to do and places to see. The Pearl-Qatar, where is located the Finish line of the 2016 UCI Road World Championships, is a man-made island off the West Bay coast featuring Mediterranean-style yacht-lined marinas, residential towers, villas and hotels, as well as luxury shopping of top brand name boutiques and showrooms. It is a popular dining spot, with its waterfront prome-nades lined with cafes and restaurants. The Pearl is a popular visitor attraction by virtue of its elegance, enabling it to be nicknamed the ‘Arabian Riviera’.

Qatar has a desert climate with year-round sunshine, hot summers and mild win-ters. Monthly temperatures range from 17°C in January to 36°C in July, sometimes reaching more than 40°C during the summer. Rain is rare, falling in brief showers mainly in winter. The work week is from Sunday to Thursday, with most offices closed on Friday and Saturday. Qatar has among the lowest crime rates in the world. It is a safe destination with religious and political stability. While normal precautions should be observed, visitors need have little concern walking in any part of the city.

Over the years, Qatar hosted major international sports events. Cycling is pro-bably the fastest growing sport in Qatar. The Qatar Cycling Federation was esta-blished in 2001 by a decision of His Highness Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, then Chairman of the Qatar Olympic Committee. The Federation, which was then governing both motor sports and cycling, was affiliated to the UCI in 2002. In May 2003, the Federation decided to concentrate only on cycling and it became the Qatar Cycling Federation.

As organisers of the 2016 UCI Road World Championships, Qatar Cycling Federation and Qatar Olympic Committee are looking forward to warmly welcoming athletes, official delegations, medias, providers and fans in Doha to attend this event.

INTERVIEW WITH EDDY MERCKXTHE DOHA 2016 AMBASSADOR

1. WITH YOUR LONG YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN CYCLING, WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF QATAR BEING THE FIRST ARAB COUNTRY TO HOST THE UCI ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS? AND, WHAT COULD YOU TELL US ABOUT QATAR’S CAPACITY FOR ORGANISING INTERNATIONAL SPORTING EVENTS GENERALLY, AND ORGANISING THE TOUR OF QATAR SINCE 2002.

It is an honour for the country to be able to organise the first Road World Championships in the Middle East. It sets an example of a country that promotes sport among its people and internationally.

Qatar has a very successful track record in the organisation of professional cycling competitions, it has been a pioneer in this field, organising the Tour of Qatar since 2002. Its trailblazing record was furthered by the creation of the Ladies Tour of Qatar in 2009. It has also, in the intervening years, developed a clear and very successful strategy to host high-level international sporting events from the Asian Games in 2006, to the Handball World Championships in 2015.

2. THE EYE-CATCHING ROUTE PASSING ATTRACTIVE LOCATIONS IN DOHA INCLUDING THE PEARL REPRESENTING DOHA’S MODERNITY AND DEVELOPMENT.

The route is ideal to give a good idea of what Qatar is about and its main characteristics tradition, culture, modernity and development and how all these combine to make up this unique country. Cycling is in many ways an ideal sport for tourism, because of the way it showcases a country, and this route is a very rich example.

3. THE HOSPITALITY AND THE ARABIAN FLAVOUR OF QATAR, HOW CAN IT IMPACT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS?

For those visitors who do not know the Middle East it will be a great introduction to the great tradition of Arabian hospitality, it will certainly add a very warm aspect to the Championships.

4. YOU SAID IN ANOTHER INTERVIEW “WIND, ECHELONS AND SPLITS COULD DEFINE THE 2016 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS IN DOHA”, COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN?

Qatar is known for the winds that can sometimes sweep over the peninsula. Wind can play a very important role and add a great degree of difficulty to the course. We shouldn’t expect a massive sprint if the wind is up. Wind can make just as much of a difference to a race as a mountain climb. It also adds an element of surprise and randomness as it is an element that we cannot control. And, the fact that we do not know whether there will be none, a little, or a lot of wind, it makes it more exciting.

5. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE ROUTE’S ATTRACTIVE SURROUNDINGS FOR TV BROADCASTING WITH THE GULF VIEW AND THE PEARL.

TV is a great tool to show a country to a large audience, and promote tourism and general knowledge of a place. TV together with cycling is the ideal combination to profile the country internationally.
