All is set for the maiden Oswal Famers\u2019 Day Cycling Race, scheduled for December 1, organisers of the event, Gladiators and the Ghana Cycling Federation have said.<\/p>\n

The initiative primarily seeks to promote healthy lifestyle, domestic tourism as well as join in the commemoration of this year\u2019s Farmers\u2019 Day celebration.<\/p>\n

And starting from The School Junction, East Legon, the men category will do a total of 112 km; making ten laps, while their female counterparts are expected to do 56km (5 laps).<\/p>\n

Registration is currently in progress on the gladiator\u2019s website for a cool rate of GH\u00a220.<\/p>\n

At stake is GH\u00a210,000 for the men\u2019s category and GH\u00a25,000, GH\u00a23,000 and GH\u00a22,000 for the female, juniors and U-23 categories respectively.<\/p>\n

At the press launch in Accra on Wednesday, Chief Gladiator, Kojo Graham, mentioned that the sport has been used as a useful tool to change lives.<\/p>\n

He cited the distribution of bicycles to some village folks as a classical example saying, \u201c\u2026we have embarked on many life-changing programmes like \u2013 changing lives through the pedal. Look forward to do what is expected of us and a successful race.\u201d<\/p>\n

Representatives of the Ghana Ambulance Service and the Ghana Police Service were present to share some safety and precautionary tips.<\/p>\n

The event, which will be held annually, is being sponsored by Oswal Investments Limited and supported by DHL, and Ghana By Bike (GBB).<\/p>\n
