It’s fantastic to see the Uganda Cycling Trail get international recognition from CNN travel no less!

“Last year saw the launch of the Uganda Cycling Trail, a 1,600-kilometer mainly unpaved 22-stage route designed to appeal to all levels of cyclist from hardcore solo bikepackers to fully-guided easy riders.”

In reply to Lex.

Yours is a fantastic story. Thanks for sharing it with us. I really enjoyed having a “front row seat!”
The legend that is Lawrence is helping me buy a bike. Somehow, some day, I shall meet you on the Tour of Karamoja… (you’ll recognise me, I’ll be the one at the BACK!) LOL.
By the way, I love the photo you took when the three of us went hiking:
St. Lawrence with Lawrence!
Happy days 🙂

Thanks again for this interview Charlotte! It has become my go-to article for when people want to know more about our nice “little” adventure. We had so much fun on our trip and I think this article shows it. I also hope it shows that you don’t need a big budget or a fancy bicycle to go on a great adventure. I hope it encourages more domestic and international tourists to explore the stunning beauty of Uganda by bicycle.

In reply to Kenneth. Yes the duo's tour is incredibly inspiring! If you enjoy African biking adventures, you'll love this story too "A rolex-fuelled bike tour of Uganda and Africa."

Wow! That is an inspiring feat! I have been to Kisoro (in 2011) and was in Kidepo last year in December. That was no mean feat!
