Thank you for your continued support of KIWL and Mirai no Mori.
We only have 5 days till 500km ride, and here are the recap of our past events:
We had a special BBQ, where 22 riders joined us with 6 graduates for a lovely day of food and celebration.
One of the graduates of our Leader in Training Program, Reina, was even gifted a road bike and has been training to participate in the final day of the four-day KIWL 500 km ride.
“I was surprised to receive a road bike. I had a lot of fun communicating with many people who talked to me and cheered me on. I’m going to train hard for June!”
Reina has a passion for the outdoors and is looking to continue supporting Mirai no Mori in the future. Please take a look at our program for more on Reina’s story with Mirai no Mori.
Why do you support Mirai no Mori? vol.2 with Reina
On May 10th, in preparation for the ride, all the riders were briefed on safety for the ride and a breakdown of the routes they will be taking.
Grand depart party was held on the May 24th to send off our riders and celebrate the journey they have taken through their training to get here. In addition to commemorating their hard work to prepare for the ride, our riders received their gear that they will wear on the ride. Each of the jerseys proudly display our sponsors who generously lended us their support and help make events like the KIWL 500km ride possible.
