This is Project Rwanda, headed by Tom Ritchey. [Recall the earlier Kenyan story.]

Mission Statement: Project Rwanda is committed to furthering the economic development of Rwanda through initiatives based on the bicycle as a tool and symbol of hope. Our goal is use the bike to help boost the Rwandan economy as well as re-brand Rwanda as a beautiful and safe place to do business and visit freely.

I noted this story as I read my latest edition of Bicycling Magazine. I find it inspiring to see what’s happening in Third-World Nations through the cycling experience.

There’s also a Team Rwanda. Please view the video below:
