Over 1,500 cycling enthusiasts of all ages and skill levels gather at the Ayala Vermosa Sports Club in Imus, Cavite today as the Cycle PH rolls off, showcasing not only the growing passion for cycling but also Sun Life’s commitment to inspiring Filipinos toward healthier, more active lifestyles.
This year’s turnout exceeded last year’s 1,385 participants, marking a milestone in the event’s history.
Year after year, Cycle PH continues to thrive, attracting fitness enthusiasts, corporate teams and well-known personalities, including cycling advocates and Sun Life ambassadors Piolo Pascual and Matteo Guidicelli.
The event, a celebration of movement, fun and community, caters to a diverse audience, offering a 60-kilometer ride for individuals and corporate teams, a 45-km endurance ride, a 30-km 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 ensures that everyone, from seasoned cyclists to families and beginners, can enjoy the experience at their own pace.
“This event has become a cherished tradition, providing a welcoming environment for both newcomers and seasoned cyclists,” Pascual said.
“It’s heart-warming 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 start to kick off at 5:25 a.m. followed by the 45-km ride at 5:35 a.m. and 30-km at 5:40 a.m. 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, reinforcing the strong collaboration between public and private sectors in promoting health and wellness.
Beyond the thrill of cycling, this year’s edition carries a deeper message — encouraging children to unplug from gadgets and embrace outdoor activities, especially during the school break. This initiative aligns with Sun Life’s advocacy to promote physical wellness and combat rising concerns over screen addiction among the youth.
Princess Galura, president and managing director of the organizing Sunrise Events Philippines, highlighted the broader impact of the initiative.
