Giant

Giant Group organiseert samen met Zwift en World Bicycle Relief (WBR) de 17e editie van Ride Like King—een wereldwijd fietsevenement ter ere van oprichter King Liu en zijn geloof in de kracht van de fiets.

This marks the 17th year of celebrating Giant Group founder King Liu’s passion for cycling. Riders are invited to join in the fun and ride for a better world May 12-18.
Giant Group employees, retailers and friends will gather for group rides all around the world May 16-18 to celebrate cycling’s positive impacts on health and fitness, communities, and the environment.
Last year RLK participants helped mobilize people and empower communities in need by accumulating enough riding kilometers to donate 600 Buffalo Bicycles to World Bicycle Relief’s programs.
Buffalo Bicycles, manufactured by Giant Group, were designed by World Bicycle Relief for heavy loads, long distances and rugged terrain. Donating these bikes to regions in need helps mobilize people including students and health workers.
Participants in the May 16-18 Zwift Ride Like King “Celebration Ride” main events will be eligible to win one of these special RLK17 jerseys and a signed card from King Liu.
The main “open” road rides on Zwift will feature the 10th generation Giant TCR Advanced SL, recently added to Zwift in preparation for RLK17.
The final day of the Zwift rides will feature WBR Buffalo Bicycles. Giant Group HQ: Giant Group employees celebrated RLK16 last year with a group ride from the company’s global headquarters in Taiwan.

Waarom Ride Like King?
In 2007 fietste King Liu op 73-jarige leeftijd 927 km rond Taiwan. Zijn passie inspireerde het ontstaan van dit jaarlijkse evenement, dat uitgroeide tot een wereldwijd initiatief om levens te veranderen—fiets voor fiets.

Wat is Ride Like King?
Een week vol virtuele en outdoor ritten om aandacht te vragen voor het werk van WBR: het bieden van betrouwbare fietsen aan mensen in afgelegen gebieden, zoals scholieren, zorgverleners en ondernemers.

Het doel van 2025
350.000 km fietsen en daarmee 700 fietsen doneren aan World Bicycle Relief. Deze organisatie levert Buffalo-fietsen, speciaal ontworpen en lokaal geassembleerd, aan studenten, zorgverleners en ondernemers in afgelegen gebieden. Tot nu toe zijn er al meer dan 868.000 fietsen geleverd. De fietsen, geproduceerd door Giant, zijn robuust, onderhoudsvriendelijk en afgestemd op ruig terrein en lange afstanden.

Zo doe je mee
Iedereen wereldwijd kan zich gratis aansluiten via het RLK17-platform en hun app (zoals Strava of Fitbit) koppelen om hun kilometers te laten meetellen. Fiets tussen 12–18 mei buiten of op Zwift, deel je foto’s op Instagram of Facebook met #RideLikeKing en maak ook kans op prijzen.
