We are pleased to say that the event is organised by the rightful international body. Unfortunately, the ride was interrupted by one of the former volunteers who helped conduct rides in the past. He applied for an injunction preventing us from using the name and logo of the ride, as he and another person had previously applied for this logo in Sri Lanka. Their application was opposed by the charity in January 2026 on the basis that the charity's trustees have a duty to protect its intangible assets. Nevertheless, that individual applied for an ex parte interim injunction on 10th March, and the order was served only on the 11th in mid-afternoon — whereas the first day of the ride had already concluded. The organising committee and the entire group of riders met on the first evening of the ride to discuss this order, and it was unanimously agreed to comply. The ride continued with the contested logo covered and was renamed as the "10th Anniversary Ride". A new banner was printed, and the ride concluded successfully under the new name.
