Triathlon campaigners Gerald Anderson, Jake Cuenca and Matteo Guidicelli take time out from their hectic schedules to lead the big cast of celebrities vying in the Sun Life CyclePH this Saturday at the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.
The troika, along with fellow sporting celebs Gretchen Ho, Iñigo Pascual, Marco Gallo and Kisses Delavin, Ysabel Ortega, Ivan Carapiet, Alex Diaz and host Piolo Pascual will see action in the premier 40-km race firing off at Bonifacio Global City to Kalayaan Flyover toward Roxas Boulevard then back again to BGC, going through the course in two loops.
The 40-km event is one of the seven categories lined up in the Sun Life CyclePH, the first of the SunPiology Duo, a fun run/cycling fund-raiser founded by Pascual also staged to raise funds for the underprivileged kids under Pascual’s Hebreo Foundation.
Fans will also get the chance to ride with their chosen Star Magic artists, including three-time Tour de France green jersey winner Robbie McEwen, through the Bid2Bike. For details and mechanics of the Bid2Bike, visit www.sunpiology.com/bid2bike/.
