Sponsorships

Cycling

We are a major sponsor of cycling in Singapore and Malaysia since 2009 and 2011 respectively. We chose to sponsor cycling because this is a sport that anyone can take up. Cycling encourages friendship, kinship and a healthy lifestyle. The inclusive nature of the activity and its ability to bring people closer together are consistent with one of our core values – teamwork.

Sponsoring the sport is also part of our efforts to give back to the community. Our support for the sport spans across all levels from recreational cyclists to the professionals.

 

OCBC Cycle Singapore and OCBC Cycle Malaysia

These mass cycling events give thousands of people the opportunity to cycle for long stretches on closed roads. OCBC Cycle Singapore was first launched in March 2009. It is the largest mass cycling event in Singapore which has seen almost 11,000 people take part.

Endorsed by the Singapore Cycling Federation (SCF) and supported by the Singapore Sports Council (SSC), the highlight of the event is the professional night criterium where renowned cyclists such as three-time Tour de France green jersey winner, Robbie McEwen, and Commonwealth gold medallist, Cameron Meyer, have raced in.

Following the success of OCBC Cycle Singapore, we launched OCBC Cycle Malaysia in 2011 which is endorsed by the Malaysian National Cycling Federation. The event is an extension of our objective of engaging the Malaysian community and promoting an active, healthy lifestyle.
