Ethio Cycling Adventures

Sunday morning rides in the rural area of Addis!

Expat group rides, Addis Ababa

We went out exploring new trials around Menagesha National Park - hope to get some riders out there once the rainy season finishes so they can enjoy the climbs, descents and beautiful scenery too

Another great ride up in to the Entoto mountain range with spectacular views over Addis Abeba

Members of the Addis diplomatic community enjoyed the challenging ride up Entoto mountain. The star of the day was a 10 year old who wasn't at the back of the group- what a champion!

EthioCyclingAdventures finished the End to End ride last Thursday after cycling for 20 days and over 1,600km

So EthioCyclingAdventures have started their Lands End to John O'Groats bike ride, over 1,000 miles from one end of the England all the way up to the top of Scotland. We're hoping to raise some money for a couple of important Ethiopian charities. Firstly the Ethiopian Hemophilia Society which helps people with bleeding disorders and secondly WellWishers, which helps build wells in rural areas.

We'll be back in Addis offering rides in early August but stay tuned for more details of our current adventure

Back in April, EthioCycling took a short holiday to Uganda and Rwanda.
Bikes were much more common than here in Addis and they're used for haulage as much as personal travel- look at how much they can carry! And of course we also found some bike mechanics to chat to

In Rwanda we paid a visit to Team Rwanda and had a look around their facility- they offer training rides with team members so if you're visiting do look them up

Mapping out a trail ride to the remote green crater lake in Debre Zeyt. Keen to ride it???

Another great ride on a great stretch of bitumen and then some off road riding through rural villages

Even with only a few hours stop over in Addis, you can get out on a bike and see the countryside
