UP Padyak is a campus biking program for UPD students and, more recently, for faculty. Initiated in 2008 by the UP Mountaineers, the UP Padyak project has gained support from the UP community, including the University Student Council that pledged a hundred bikes in its program called "Dagdag Padyak".
