Fresh thinking.
A shared cycling story.

Spinneys and Cycle Safe Dubai are connected by far more than a name on a jersey. Colleagues, leaders, volunteers and riders have helped build a lasting link between good food, active communities and the Spinneys Dubai 92 Cycle Challenge.

About Spinneys UAE

Quality food with a community purpose.

Spinneys has built its regional name around quality food, careful sourcing and customer service. In the UAE, it works with growers and suppliers, supports local businesses and encourages communities to eat well and live well.

01

Quality and freshness

Careful sourcing, traceability and fresh-food expertise remain central to the Spinneys offer.

02

Local connections

Growers, suppliers, colleagues and customers are part of a community built in—and around—the UAE.

03

Living well

Everyday food choices and active lives sit naturally alongside a long commitment to cycling.

A relationship built on the road

Riders first. Partnership second.

Spinneys’ own history records a staff cycling team beginning with four colleagues in 2005 and growing into a large, active riding community. That authentic participation is one reason the relationship with CSD has lasted.

CSD’s archive shows Spinneys on an early yellow members’ jersey in 2011. Spinneys UAE and CSD share more than a commercial partnership: CEO Sunil Kumar and the CMO are avid cyclists who ride regularly with the Spinneys family, catching up with Nick, Stewart and the wider community each week. The connection is visible in weekly rides, build-up events and one of the region’s best-known cycling challenges.

More than sponsorship

The strongest partnerships are understood on the ride: shared kilometres, practical support, community participation and people who keep turning up.

The flagship cycling connection

Spinneys Dubai 92 Cycle Challenge.

The Spinneys Dubai 92 Cycle Challenge has grown into a major UAE mass-participation cycling event, bringing residents, international riders, first-time entrants and experienced racers onto the same event calendar.

CSD’s dedicated event guide keeps the useful overview on our site: distance, preparation, build-up rides, the Gran Fondo qualification pathway and answers to the questions riders ask most often. Registration and final event instructions remain with the official organiser.

Food for everyday life

Fresh choices around an active week.

This is not an online shop. It is a short introduction to the part Spinneys plays beyond cycling: making fresh produce, bakery and prepared-food choices accessible to UAE communities.

Keep the page focused on people, not products.

For CSD, the important story is the overlap between an active community and a retailer whose teams genuinely take part in cycling.
