Rwanda Cycling Federation

[3][needs update] The FERWACY management committee consists of the president, two vice-presidents, a general secretary, a treasurer and three advisors, all of which are elected positions.

[8][9] In September 2019, Rwanda and FERWACY submitted their official bid to host the event in Kigali, the capital and largest city.

It allows participants to ride on some of the same roads and climbs used in that year's Tour du Rwanda just hours before the professional race.

[20] As part of the Kigali City Master Plan 2050 and revised District Development Strategies, the Rwanda Cycling Federation, in conjunction with the United Nations and other national government organizations, have launched several initiatives to promote cycling commuterism in order to reduce emissions, increase sustainability, and ensure a cleaner environment.

These measures include the construction and improvement of pedestrian footpaths and bike paths, the launch of GuraRide, a public bike-sharing program, and the UN Environment Programme's Share the Road Initiative in partnership with the Global Green Growth Institute.

In rural areas of Rwanda, cycling is one of the most common means of transportation.
