Ali & Sons Škoda UAE and Wolfi’s Join Forces to Drive UAE Cycling Forward
Wolfi’s, the region’s leading cycling retailer and community builder, has officially partnered with Ali & Sons Škoda UAE, the exclusive distributor of the Škoda brand in the United Arab Emirates, to support and elevate the country’s growing cycling scene. This collaboration builds on Škoda’s global legacy and deep connection to cycling—asport that has been part of its DNA since the brand’s beginnings in 1895.
The partnership was formalized during the Wolfi’s Racing Team 2025/26 Season Kick-Off Event, where Ali & Sons Škoda UAE and Wolfi’s celebrated the start of a new chapter dedicated to performance, community, and the shared passion for cycling, at the brand-new Škoda showroom on Sheikh Zayed Road.
Under the two-year agreement, Ali & Sons Škoda UAE will sponsor both the Wolfi’s Racing Team and the Dubai Roadsters, two of the UAE’s most established and respected cycling communities. As part of the sponsorship, Ali & Sons Škoda UAE will provide two Škoda Kodiaq vehicles and the allnew Superb Wagon to support team logistics, community rides, and activations throughout the season.
This partnership is a natural fit: Škoda’s connection to cycling dates back to its very beginnings, when the company started as a bicycle manufacturer in 1895. Today, the Czech brand continues to play a leading role in the sport globally— as a long-standing partner of the Tour de France, L’Étape by Tour de France, and the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships—promoting cycling culture and an active lifestyle around the world.
“Škoda’s story began with bicycles, and to this day, the brand remains deeply connected to the world of cycling. Wolfi’s was built on the same passion, making this partnership a perfect match. Together, we’ll continue pushing the boundaries of what cycling means in the UAE,” said Wolfgang Hohmann, Founder of Wolfi’s.
“We love the look and performance of Škoda cars and all the thoughtful details that make cyclists’ lives better; from the espresso maker to the phone holder and trunk divider. Thank you, Škoda and Wolfi’s - we love cycling.”
“At Ali & Sons Motors, we are proud to support local cycling lifestyle that resonates deeply with Škoda’s heritage,” said Mark Austin, Group General Manager, Ali & Sons Motors. “It’s a chance to give back to the community, support an active lifestyle, and connect with people who share our passion for smart mobility and adventure.”
The Wolfi’s Racing Team represents the UAE’s competitive spirit, featuring 40 athletes across different disciplines and age groups. Alongside Wolfi’s Racing Team, the Dubai Roadsters—one of the UAE’s oldest and most respected cycling communities—will also benefit from this collaboration. Founded in 2000, the group brings together riders of all levels for weekly rides across Dubai, fostering inclusivity, safety, and a shared passion for the sport.
With the support of Škoda brand and Wolfi’s, this partnership will elevate the overall ride experience and community initiatives, helping the Dubai Roadsters continue to inspire and connect cyclists across the UAE.
“This partnership perfectly embodies what both brands stand for: performance, passion, and community,” said Sam Whittam, Chief Strategy & Growth Officer at Wolfi’s. “Together, we aim to inspire more people to get on their bikes and be part of the UAE’s vibrant cycling culture.”
The partnership marks the beginning of a dynamic collaboration between two brands that share the same vision: to drive cycling culture forward in the UAE.
