Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>The Rwanda cycling federation on Wednesday, March 15, signed a three-year memorandum of understanding with the French cycling federation.<\/p>\n

The deal is expected to contribute to the further development of Rwandan cycling.<\/p>\n

The agreement was signed at the Fe\u0301de\u0301ration Franc\u0327aise de Cyclisme (FFC) headquarters in Paris, France by the Rwanda cycling federation president, Abdallah Murenzi, and his French counterpart, Michel Callot.<\/p>\n

The partnership will technically focus on growing Rwandan cyclists, coaches and mechanical engineers through training that will be offered by experts from the French cycling governing body.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe agreement will greatly improve our cycling because France is a gifted country in cycling,\u201d Murenzi told Times Sport.<\/p>\n

Through this partnership, the French cycling federation will support Rwanda in organizing some races including Tour du Rwanda, Rwanda Cycling Cup and preparing the 2025 UCI Road World Cycling Championships that will be held in Rwanda.<\/p>\n

France will host the 2027 edition.<\/p>\n

The French body will allow Rwandan cyclists to train in France and connect them with French elite teams. The Rwanda cycling federation will collaborate with its partners to acquire affordable and reliable equipment including bicycles and jerseys.<\/p>\n
