  • Summary

  • If you’ve been following The Just BIkes Podcast for a while, you’d know that earlier this year, I spent a week chasing the cyclists competing in the Race Around Rwanda, a 1000km self-supported bikepacking race that took place in February. With about 18,000m of climbing and 40% offroad with some VERY wild weather patterns, this race is tough.


    It’s one I did myself in 2023 but that is a story for another day - or today, if you want to hear it, I did do two episodes based on my own experience below:


    Dawn’s DNF Race Report Part 1

    Dawn’s DNF Race Report Part 2


    Also please feel free to scroll back to episodes 6 through 10 to get a flavor of this year’s race.


    We’re revisiting Race Around Rwanda today with my last episode detailing some of experiences of those who took on the race this year, sharing a interview I did on the ground in Kigali with the Lanterne Rouge(s) Christine & Roland Bartmus Caps 55… who timed it perfectly by rolling into the finisher's party to a hero's welcome.


    You may also be interested to know that registrations are now open for the 2025 edition of the race: https://racearoundrwanda.com


    I hope you enjoy the episode!
