From logistics industry professionals all the way to customers of MTS joined in for the event which grows every year due to it's establishment as an event for an exceptional cause!

A total of 23 companies participated in the said bike race. Also, a record-breaking number of 147 participants that came to ride the road and track with their bikes, despite the fact that there was a reported heavy rain downpour.

The main purpose of this event is to plant trees equivalent to every person who participated in the race. For one person who participates in the first leg of the race (tier 1), 200 trees will be planted. 100 trees will then be planted for the ones who will bike on the second turn (tier 2).

The route in which participating bikers took in tier 1 ranged from Battery Park and made two rounds around Central Park. After these two rounds, bikers went back to Battery Park to start tier 2.

Tier 2 then started at the same point of origin from tier 1, but they all met at "BikeAndRoll". Afterwards, they headed to Brighton Beach taking the route on Brooklyn Bridge.

The bikers then had brunch at a cafe named Volna Cafe on the same bridge. They then headed back to Battery Park by taking the route in Manhattan.

After the race, winning bikers were then given prizes for participating. One got a brand new bike of his own. Another got a go-pro camera and one lucky soul gets to take home a complete set of sports gear.

In the end, even though not all were given these prizes, they were still glad to have participated if it means saving and preserving the beauty of Mother Nature. Also, the bikers also gained a day of healthy exercise by biking around selected vicinities.
