8,000 people participated in the 10th annual Ride, Run, Swim and Walk for the Roses — nearly 3,000 more than last year. ‘Ride for the Roses’ represents Curaçao’s collective fight against cancer; our way of joining forces, sweating up a storm, and enjoying our beautiful island all while raising money for our Prinses Wilhelmina Fonds.
2014 by the numbers:
- 6,500 walkers
- 750 riders
- 500 swimmers
- 130 spinergy
- 120 uphill challenge

And last but certainly not least, Randhy Cuevas completed the first ever CLIMB TO THE ROSES reaching the top of the Christoffel — the tallest peak in Curaçao — 10 times over the course of 9 hours.
