The Tour d’Afrique – a test of mind, body, and bicycle

“Life is about the adventure along the way not the final destination. I’m sure this is going to be one hell of an adventure.” – Martin Arrell (New Zealand)

Legs & Feets – A Journey

“We have been traveling since 2016. Earlier this year we purchased a Tandem Bicycle in the UK and have ridden from Nordkapp Norway to Italy. Now we plan to extend our trip through Africa.” – Mitchel Bulthuis & Lesa Shields (USA)

De Sjaak in Africa

“Het begon allemaal als een leuk idee en een stoere uitdaging. En het was nog zo ver weg. Gewoon door Afrika fietsen, van noord naar zuid. Genieten van het fietsen, het eindeloze fietsen dag in dag uit, en genieten van de mooiste natuur ter wereld.” – Aedo Hoekstra (Netherlands)

Emma Pedals Africa

“Join me and my two wheeled companion as we undertake 120 days of physical, mental and emotional adventure.” – Emma Oliver (UK)

Here Be Dragons

“So I’m going to cycle it…12,000 km from top to tip of the most misunderstood Continent. Because out on the road, with nothing but a bike and a camera, I believe there still Be Dragons. Unknown wonders around every turn in the road.” – Karen Robyn (Canada)
