Early confirmation has been received from the lady bikers/journalists of GMA7, Leo Oracion's biking group from Lukban (Oracion is the first Filipino to climb Mt. Everest), another group from Lipa City and the Batangas Riders. Started in 2007 by the provincial tourism office and Team Marinduque the local competition has seen all types of cyclists from everywhere joining scheduled races here such as Duathlon, Aggressive Cross-Country Races, Triathlon and Fun Rides around Marinduque.
