This edition of ‘Ride with Rixos’ is a celebration of strength, resilience, and the joy of giving. All proceeds and awareness raised will go towards supporting children facing critical illnesses through the impactful work of ‘Make-A-Wish Foundation UAE.’
The ride begins bright and early at 6.45 am with an energising warm-up session at the elegant front entrance of Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi.
At 7.15 am, cyclists will set off on a 20-kilometre scenic journey along the stunning Abu Dhabi Corniche, taking in the capital’s sparkling coastline while riding for a cause that touches hearts.
Upon completing the route, riders will be welcomed back with open arms, refreshing beverages, and the signature Turkish hospitality that Rixos Marina is known for.
A post-ride stretching session will be offered in the wellness area, followed by a community breakfast gathering; the perfect moment to connect, reflect, and celebrate the shared impact of the ride.

More than just a ride
Launched in June 2023 on World Bicycle Day, ‘Ride with Rixos’ has grown into a powerful community-driven initiative, promoting health, connection, and social good.
Over five editions, it has united nearly 800 riders and supported causes such as Friends of Cancer Patients and The Pink Caravan.
This month’s ride proudly joins forces with ‘Make-A-Wish Foundation UAE,’ a non-profit that has granted over 7,600 wishes since its founding in 2010.
These wishes bring light into the darkest times for children battling life-threatening illnesses, restoring hope and joy to them and their families.
You don’t need to be a pro cyclist to make a difference. You just need heart; and a bike. Come ride with Rixos and be part of something beautiful.
