“Cycling for Love 2025”, organised by the Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong, will be held in Chengdu, Sichuan, from April 17 - 22, 2025. This year, we are focusing on rural revitalisation and youth entrepreneurship. Participants will ride approximately 100 km along the Chengdu Tianfu Greenway and Qionglai Greenway, passing through natural scenery and historical sites such as Qinglong Lake Park and Pingle Ancient Town. During the trip, participants will visit local schools to engage with students and tour the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding to see giant pandas in person!

 

Funds raised from the event will be used to promote rural revitalisation projects in Chengdu and improve the quality of life for students. Participants will also participate in handicraft workshops, creating unique handmade souvenirs to support rural development in Chengdu! So what’re you waiting for? Join us now!
