Bad weather forced the last leg of the Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge to be called off. The event was for covering the 129 km sea route in form of kayaking and the step was taken so that teams are safe.

Such incidents are nothing new and weather changes keep affecting the sporting event every year. But there was nothing to worry for the spectators as the finals are scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi today.

But weather can turn bad anytime, he added, and the athletes should be prepared to face any kind of eventuality. He also assured that the final is going be very attractive; also that the teams have rested more fighting spirit can be seen in their approach.
