It was 2016 when a few employees of Riau Andalan Pulp and Paper (RAPP) realized that were all doing the same thing every day – taking their bicycles to work.

With a shared love for their two-wheeled vehicles, they soon grouped together to form the Riau Complex Cycling Community (RCCC). Today, there are 70 members in the club, whose ages range from 25 to 50.

The RCCC organises routine gatherings every weekend, where members go on 20km rides or simply ride around their residential areas together.
