The Lexus Cycling Dream Team was honoured for its contribution to and support of the Karaiskakio Foundation as part of the Foundation’s anniversary event marking 30 years of operation and service, held on September 23, 2026, at the Olympic House in Nicosia.

The recognition relates to the Ride of Love 2025 (“Agonas Agapis 2025”), through which the Lexus Cycling Dream Team raised and donated €25,000 to the Karaiskakio Foundation to support the Paediatric Cancer Centre’s screening and diagnostic programme. To achieve this goal, members of the team covered 175 challenging off-road kilometres, from Polis Chrysochous to Limassol.

“This recognition is particularly meaningful to all of us because it reflects a collective effort with a very specific purpose: to provide meaningful support where there is a genuine need,” said Marios Skandalis, speaking on behalf of the Lexus Cycling Dream Team. “We thank the Karaiskakio Foundation, as well as everyone who stood by us and contributed to the ‘Ride of Love 2025’.”

The team’s commitment to giving back continues. On November 6 and 7, 2026, the Lexus Cycling Dream Team will once again take to the roads for the Ride of Love 2026, covering 165 off-road kilometres from Nicosia to Limassol, this time in support of the Stella Soulioti Children’s Therapeutic Centre of the Cyprus Red Cross.
