The highlight and spotlight event will be a carefully designed swim, bike, and run course that will bring both locals and guests ever closer to the Middle Eastern history and heritage. The flat and fast point to point bike route itself will allow participants to register their visit to iconic buildings and attractions such as the first oil well in the Gulf. Before the year 1932, the region solely depended fishing, pearl diving, and limited farming for survival. However, everything changed tepidly at 1932 when oil was first discovered in The Kingdom of Bahrain, giving hope for more oil discoveries in nearby desert lands. The bike route will take a turn in the desert to visit the oil museum and oil well number 1, before heading to Bahrain International Circuit, home of the annual Bahrain Gran Prix Formula One race for T2.
