Eco-friendly Davao Groups Receive Bikes from CORE/R.O.X.

Davao is a bike-friendly city and in fact, an ordinance is already in place with the aim of creating bike lanes around the metro. Right now, the city is home to a number of cycling groups that promote a healthy lifestyle and hold yearly fun ride events. These groups vary in the bicycles they use as some are dedicated to mountain bikes while the others cater to different types including the classic bikes, folding bikes and the BMX.

Recently, two eco-friendly and non-profit organizations in Davao City each received five brand new bikes and other bike gears such as Fox helmets and gloves from CORE (Center for Outdoor Recreation and Expedition) through its Heroes on Wheels program and R.O.X. Philippines. The recipients were Cycle for Life and Tuburan Institute chosen by CORE's partner Firefly Brigade. They are the fourth and fifth beneficiaries of the program, respectively.
