From 1400 cyclists to zero plastic, the 2025 edition of ‘Pedal for the Planet’ powers Bengaluru’s largest green movement yet.

A decade since it first put wheels to purpose, Embassy Group’s flagship sustainability event, Pedal for the Planet, returned with its most expansive edition yet. Over 1,400 cyclists families, professionals, schoolchildren, and sustainability advocates converged at Embassy Springs, marking the 10th anniversary of Bengaluru’s largest citizen-led cycling initiative.
What began as a corporate green campaign has now become a city-wide movement, championing environmental consciousness through community engagement. This year’s edition was not just about kilometers clocked, but milestones in eco-responsibility.

Every pedal stroke was designed to reinforce action: zero plastic was used on-site, filtered water was served in terracotta matkas, electric vehicles led the rally, and trees were pledged for every participating cyclist. Participants chose between 3km, 5km, and 20km routes, crossing urban greens, community spaces, and educational institutions, all of which played a role in shaping the event’s environmental message.
The ride also highlighted Embassy’s long-standing partnerships with sustainability-focused organisations. Highlights included an immersive art installation using repurposed waste, eco-carnival booths by school children, and live demos on upcycling and water conservation. Collaborators included partners such as TAICT and local environmental groups, who offered hands-on climate action activities.

“We’re proud to see how Pedal for the Planet has evolved into a platform where fitness, climate awareness, and community come together,” said a spokesperson from Embassy Group. “This 10th edition was not just a celebration but a reaffirmation of our commitment to creating climate-resilient communities.”
The 2025 event also featured a Carbon Offset Zone, where participants could calculate and pledge compensations for their daily emissions, integrating data-driven accountability into the experience.

As Pedal for the Planet enters its second decade, Embassy Group is planning to take the initiative to other cities, aiming to replicate its unique blend of education, mobility, and environmental action.
With over 10,000 cumulative participants since inception and tangible environmental impact from tree plantation to waste diversion the legacy of Pedal for the Planet continues to grow with every rotation of the wheel.
