YES SECURITIES (India) Limited successfully hosted its inaugural Cyclothon 2025 on 9 November, a fitness and community initiative that united cycling enthusiasts from across the city under the inspiring theme “Stronger Legs, Longer Life.”
The 50K ride was flagged off by fitness icon Milind Soman; YES SECURITIES MD & CEO Anshul Arzare; YES BANK MD & CEO Prashant Kumar; along with Major General Vivek Tyagi and Commodore Amanpreet Singh, a media release said.
Conceptualised by Arzare, himself an avid cyclist, the event was designed as a non-competitive and inclusive ride encouraging participants of all experience levels to focus on health, consistency, and community spirit over competition. Cyclothon 2025 also marks the beginning of a wider series of wellness and engagement initiatives by YES SECURITIES.
Over 3,038 cyclists participated, from the youngest rider, 11-year-old Mishree Doshi, to amputee cyclist Ramesh Shukla. The event also featured Tandem Cycling, where captains rode alongside specially abled participants on shared bicycles, a powerful showcase of inclusion, teamwork, and trust. Adding to the pride of the occasion, personnel from the Indian Navy also joined the ride, embodying the spirit of unity and endurance, per the media release.

Arzare said, “At YES SECURITIES, we aim to foster a culture where people feel inspired to take charge of their health, their goals, and their growth. Pedal Karo Apne Style Se is our way of reminding everyone that fitness is not a one size fits all it’s about finding your own rhythm. Taking even an hour a day to engage in any form of movement or sport that suits you best can make all the difference.”
Soman shared, “Fitness should never feel like a race… it’s about finding joy in movement and doing it your way. ‘Pedal Karo Apne Style Se’ by YES SECURITIES beautifully captures that spirit. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider, what matters is that you get out there, move at your own pace, and enjoy the journey.”
