Participants will come from Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda.<\/p>\n

It is expected that some roads will be closed and fans will have particular points from which they will watch the race. <\/p>\n

Serge Rusagara, one of the organizers, says the new arrangement will help to reduce accidents that would arise from crowds of fans that sometimes throng the roadsides. <\/p>\n

\u201cNormally, fans would choose their vantage points, but to ensure their safety, we have organized specific viewpoints from where fans will watch the race,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

It is expected that the championship will be held during day and night hours on the first day, starting with trip from \u2019Golden Tulip Hotel\u2019 located in Nyamata sector to Rilima, a distance of 92.62 kilometers.<\/p>\n

On the second day participants of the competition will pass through Nyagihunika, Kamabuye and Rilima. They will go through these locations for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th rounds covering 146.13 km.<\/p>\n

Golden Tulip Hotel as the main sponsor of the rally will provide Rwf 6 million and provide accommodation to 40 participants for five days.<\/p>\n

Other sponsors of the rally include; ISPA, Coca Cola, SP, Rwandair, Printex, Akagera, Tigo, Victoria International, DY Solutions, Sulfo, Volcanoes, Rwanda Motors, Quincallerie Polimec, Prime Service, Hydrobatel, X Lent, CS Graphic, EtsVerma, RGL and Smart Fleet . <\/p>\n
