The 24-year-old finished in second place in the 2020 edition and believes he can go one step better.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, the Tour du Rwanda is one of the most important races on the calendar and I believe each time I take part in it, I grow as a rider and gain experience. I believe I can win the race this year and very determined to do so.\u201d He added<\/p>\n

The 14th Tour du Rwanda has attracted UCI World Tour teams, professional continental teams, continental teams as well as national teams.<\/p>\n

No Rwandan rider has won a stage in the race\u2019s last three editions.<\/p>\n
