NOTICE ON 17 APRIL 2025: OCBC Cycle 2025 Goes Virtual!

OCBC Cycle 2025 will now be held entirely in a virtual format. This decision is due to the significant security resources required to ensure the safety of participants during the event, which will be limited during the weekend of 3 and 4 May 2025.

We explored rescheduling the event and/or relocating it. Unfortunately, there is no suitable venue in the city that can accommodate long-distance routes for up to 7,000 cyclists.

What this means for you:

  • Refunds: All paying participants will get full refunds, via their original payment method. Refunds will be made by 31 May 2025.
  • Virtual participation: Participants can join the virtual equivalent of their original ride for free.
