KENYA, Naro Moru: In a photograph taken by Make It Kenya 21 Novemebr 2015, a rider races in the Mt Kenya Epik cycling challenge in Naro Moru Nyeri County approx. 220km north of the Kenyan capital Nairobi. The cycling challenge, taking place between 21-24 November, will see over 30 cyclists both local and international professionals cover more than 300km through central Kenya. David Kinjah, Epik founder and training partner to two-time Tour-De France champion Chris Froome, hopes the event creates awareness of conservation projects around the Mt. Kenya region, which address the issues arising as a result of human-wildlife conflict and management of natural resources, particularly in water catchment areas. Kinjah who recently came back from the Cairo-Cape cycling challenge said that the Epik is a good opportunity to further engage the youth of the country and provide them with a platform to be involved in something worthwhile. "Kenyan cycling is still at the grassroots level and that's a good thing," Kinjah said adding that young cyclists come from rural areas and are enthusiastic about a sport that looks to have a bright future in the East AFrican country.
