Hundreds take to streets of Shanghai for Huangpu charity ride
The 2025 Circle of Huangpu River Charity Ride drew hundreds of cyclists onto the streets of Shanghai on Saturday.
At 7 am on Saturday morning, the riders got underway from Binjiang Avenue in Pudong New Area, embarking on a 35-kilometer journey past urban landmarks including MIFA 1862 and the riversides of Pudong and Huangpu.
The ride, which took place in partnership with the Shanghai Sports Development Foundation, allocated a portion of the proceeds to national fitness initiatives and public welfare projects, with a donation of 30,000 yuan ($4,226) being made on the day.
The award ceremony, which featured charity auctions and prize draws, took place on a cruise ship. Auction items included a one-year lease of a 50-square-meter private plot in Sanzao Village, Pudong and a Trek bicycle.
Now in its 13th year, the race has become a hallmark event of Shanghai, promoting the fusion of sports and charity and enhancing the city's reputation as a world-class sports hub.
