MANILA – All is set for the Shopwise Bikefest scheduled on May 18 at the Vermosa Sports Hub in Imus, Cavite with organizers eyeing at least 2,800 riders, surpassing last year’s turnout of 2,443.
The competition, which promotes a healthy lifestyle, is open to all ages and skill levels, from toddlers to corporate cyclists.
The race distances are 30 km., 45 km. and 60 km., while participants between 2 to 15 years old will enjoy specially tailored rides.
Shopwise general manager Kerwin Legarde has expressed their excitement to offer a platform “where people can bond, move and make memories together”.
Road closures and full race support will ensure the safety of the riders while strict bike rules — excluding fixies and e-bikes — keep the race fair and streamlined. Eligible bikes include road, BMX, mountain, gravel and foldable types.
Princess Galura of organizing partner Sunrise Events Philippines stressed that the scale and planning behind the cycling event reflect international standards.
“With this kind of response and community enthusiasm, the bikefest is poised to become a staple in the Philippine sporting calendar,” she said in a statement. (PNA)
