For most people, biking is a weekend hobby. For Kyla Alimbuyugin, better known online as Ride with Kyla, it’s a lifestyle—and one she’s sharing with thousands of fans across the Philippines. At just 22, this Malabon-based cyclist and University of the East graduate has built an online community that cheers her on with every ride, run, and adventure.
From First Ride to First Million Views
Kyla only launched her Facebook page in September 2022, but her rise was fast and furious. Her very first video in December 2023 hit 300,000 views, and within weeks she was pulling in half a million. By January 2025, one of her Reels soared to 3.3 million views—a milestone that put her squarely on the map of Filipino content creators.
On TikTok, she’s equally unstoppable. With nearly 97,000 followers and viral clips like her fan encounters set to crossing 1.1 million views, Kyla’s content blends athletic energy with a touch of heart.
More Than Just Cycling
Yes, biking is her brand, but Kyla is more than just pedals and wheels. She’s also a runner, placing 7th in her category at the Sante Barley Trilogy Run Asia in May 2025. She also shares snippets of badminton matches, Zumba sessions, and even beach days with her boyfriend, Kleve Michael.
That mix of fitness, fun, and everyday moments makes her feel approachable. Her fans don’t just follow her rides—they follow her life.
Building Her Own Path
Beyond content, Kyla is also a businesswoman. She runs Kali & Luna Apparel, her own clothing line, and Bike Garage PH by Ride with Kyla, an online shop for cycling gear. It’s proof that she’s not only riding for herself but also empowering others to enjoy the sport.
And with partnerships from brands like Royal MNL Sports Apparel, Sunrimoon, Sixbysix, Amazfit, and The Bike Dojo, she’s turned her passion into a profession.
What truly sets Kyla apart is her bond with her supporters. Her Facebook group, RWK Ride with Kyla, is more than just a fan page—it’s a hub for cyclists to share routes, tips, and encouragement. On the road, she often stops to interact with fans, sometimes featuring them in her videos.
What’s Next for Kyla?
Kyla is already juggling school achievements, viral fame, and thriving businesses. Yet she’s only just begun. Whether she’s sprinting through city runs, cruising along coastal highways, or growing her online community, Ride with Kyla is pedaling toward bigger goals—and bringing everyone along for the journey.
