Over 1,500 cycling enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels gather at the Ayala Vermosa Sports Club in Imus, Cavite, today (Sunday), as the Cycle PH rolls off.
This year’s turnout exceeded last year’s 1,385 participants, marking a milestone in the event’s history, said the organizers.
Cycle PH has attracted fitness enthusiasts, corporate teams, and well-known personalities, including cycling advocates and Sun Life ambassadors Piolo Pascual and Matteo Guidicelli.
The event caters to a diverse audience, offering a 60km ride for individuals and corporate teams, a 45km endurance ride, a 30km scenic ride, and even kid-friendly 500-meter solo and parent-child rides and the new push bike ride for kids aged 2-5.
“This event has become a cherished tradition, providing a welcoming environment for both newcomers and seasoned cyclists,” said Pascual. “It’s heartwarming to see cycling grow as a sport and lifestyle choice through such inclusive events.”
Assembly time for the 60km event is at 5 a.m. with the ride starting to kick off at 5:25 a.m. followed by the 45km ride at 5:35 a.m. and 30km at 5:40. The kids ride, on the other hand, will start at 9 a.m., including the push bike category.
Joining the event are Imus City Mayor Alex Advincula, Sun Life Philippines Brand Strategy and Management head Don Aaron Peji, and Ayala Vermosa Sports Hub general manager Lani Tan.
Beyond cycling, this year’s event aims to send a deeper message—encouraging children to unplug from gadgets and embrace outdoor activities, especially during the school break.
Princess Galura, president and managing director of the organizing Sunrise Events Philippines, highlighted the broader impact of the initiative.
“We want to create events that positively influence our community. With the support of Sun Life and the City of Imus, we are fostering inclusivity and increasing representation in sports,” said Galura.
