With four World Cup qualifiers remaining, Uruguay finished seventh – three points off the automatic qualification spot.
So the team promised to bike to their training camp if they made it to Qatar, and they have now delivered on their promise.
Arsenal star Lucas Torreira and former Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani were among the group of riders.
The team wore oversized coats and warm track pants with Benfica star Nunez also wearing a white beret.
He seemed to be enjoying himself as well as he took his hands off the handlebars to take a picture.
The striker may be ready to move to the Premier League this summer amid interest from United and Liverpool.
The Reds are reportedly ready to break their own transfer record with Nunez as Benfica have claimed £85m.
Liverpool are hoping to bring that fee down to around £60m, but are engaged in talks and aiming to make an offer soon.

Cavani and Torreira are also set to discover new clubs this summer, with the former linked with a move to Salernitana.
Fiorentina had secured Torreira on loan last season but failed to grant him on a permanent basis, opening the door for Lazio to sign the Arsenal midfielder.
