Last year, the COVID-19 pandemic posed unexpected challenges to the health, livelihood, and well-being of communities around the globe. Working, shopping, and getting around have all changed drastically as a result of global efforts to contain the virus’s spread.
People turned to the outdoors for exercise, mental relaxation, and to help them escape the stress caused by the new patterns of daily life in a new normal. Bicycling was one of the most popular forms of recreation and exercise before, and it is becoming more well liked today. So, here is where the project, PadyACT Siklista came into action.
More than just a biking event, Bike Fun Ride for a Cause, with the theme PadyACT Siklista: Ahon Patagumpay, held today, April 3, 2022 at Tanauan City is a charity effort held by Rotaract Club of Tanauan, District 3820, spearheaded by Rtr.

The ride finally kicked off at 6:30 in the morning. With the route from New Tanauan City Hall to the boundary of Ambulong and Talisay going back to New Tanauan City Hall, the event immensely managed to offer riders an inimitable and fun biking experience.
