Over 120 participants — ranging from hotel staff and corporate guests to seasoned cyclists from Hyderabad Randonneurs — gathered before sunrise, setting the tone for a day defined by action and connection.

The morning began on a high note with a dynamic Zumba warm-up, pumping energy into the crowd and reinforcing the event’s vibrant, inclusive vibe.

Cyclists hit the road in batches, grouped by their selected distances: 3 km for the Ride for Hope, 6 km for the Ride for Change, and 50 km for the Ride for Impact.

Each route represented a deeper commitment to the cause. As riders pushed forward, they were cheered on at strategic zones outfitted with music, props, and custom photo backdrops — designed to energize and capture the spirit of the moment.

From young children pedaling on training wheels to veteran cyclists logging the full 50 kilometers, the diverse group of riders shared one goal — contributing to a cause greater than themselves.

“This cyclothon wasn’t just about riding a few kilometers — it was about driving real change,” said Sandeep Joshi, Area General Manager, South India, Radisson Hotel Group South Asia, and General Manager, Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Hyderabad Banjara Hills.
