Rwanda: the BEST gravel cycling in the world

[@Avioto]

I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous, I'M NOT JEALOUS

[@johnsenior478]

Well….beautiful people, beautiful gravel, beautiful country, beautiful vlog ( and all Maddy boxes ticked with the doggo at the end) PS If those two guys climbing that hill on single speed bikes with 2 milk churns on the back ever turn up to a race …

[@maddynutt]

Hahaha they were seriously strong !!!

[@ramsden35]

What a stunning country that needs showcasing

[@maddynutt]

couldn't agree more

[@helenbenham19]

Great footage Maddy. It looks as though you are having a blast.

[@malcontent_1]

And gotta love the heartfelt welcome & unrestrained curiosity from the locals

[@a.bell47]

absolutely stunning! a bucket list travel+ride for sure 😎

[@mysho6317]

Tough riding & even much tougher roads. Great scenery & Riding - Well done😎

[@efraimlouisegolicruz795]

wow beautiful gravel ride! 😍

[@hugoed3740]

Amazing rides in a scenic country, thanks for the video Maddy. 👏👏👏👏 I was surprised not to see any animals, wild or farm and I bet your glad it was not the rainy season🤣🤣

[@biketrybe7071]

Beautiful ride. Thank you for bringing us along.

[@theyorkshirewheeler]

That looks like a dusty ride, great video!

[@jamesherd9132]

Thanks Maddy Love your Videos Rwanda Looks Stunning.

[@larrymyles1012]

So Good! We missed you at this year's Unbound!

[@maddynutt]

Next year! :)

[@annelisenorth8670]

Love your videos!!! Thanks.

[@edscales282]

Way to go girls!

[@mistersmith158]

Amazing location lovely looking views everywhere and those kids were so cute and friendly wow. You did a great job capturing this adventure Maddy. Bloody hell those two guys with the massive metal containers were beasts; I can just imagine them crushing some mountains without all that weight. Great group of girls with you too. That was a wicked sand section yikes. This trip was fueled by #Fanta sponsorship welcomed #Fanta. That Ecolodge was crazy sweet. Rwanda cycling destination 100% #rwandatourism bring this girl back she's a great ambassador for your tourism.

[@maddynutt]

Honestly it was the most fun trip and such an amazing place to ride. It was so good there is a part 2...

[@paulsweeney5642]

Enjoyed it.

[@JPatteri]

Looks some awesome riding!

[@warrensanders5842]

Crank Brothers do a spacer plate that brings the cleat away from the shoe just enough to save you cutting bits of the sole.- worth a try.

[@maddynutt]

Had no idea about this!!!

[@RickRolling-tc7vb]

That looked like fun, but pretty gnarly roads compared to Scotland. Must be pretty challenging to race on. Do you ever fall off, Maddy? Thanks for the vicarious climbs, and the views - just lovely.

[@maddynutt]

I actually didn't fall off all week!! Typically I do not, but see Santa Vall video for something that contradicts that

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Classic

[@gabrielnetto8283]

So many breathtaking places! And do you few you've improved you downhill skills with this trip?

[@maddynutt]

100% felt more and more confident as the trip went on

[@ebrahimgora9938]

You should do a bike-packing across Africa. Love these views and the people! How does it compare to Kenya?

[@maddynutt]

Would love to do a trip like this one day! Very different to Kenya. Different scenery, Rwanda has a lot more hills! Rwanda also feels a lot safer as a woman riding alone for example

[@TheBikeChallenge]

Did you organise this with a travel agent or by yourself? It'd be awesome to know how to replicate this or a similar adventure with local guides

[@Maxd555]

It’s all been organised by travel agent Rishi Sunak he send now everyone to Rwanda 😂

[@maddynutt]

Organised with Tugende based in Rwanda. They also organised a driver for us. Violette is a local guide as well as a racer. You can find her on my instagram :)

@@maddynutt it is hard to get into cars - to and from airports? Thanks

[@maddynutt]

@@erinclaudio9211 you just need to make sure the car has a big enough boot

No dogs?

[@maddynutt]

Rwanda only seemed to have 1 dog!!

[@douglaswacera_Creative_Studios]

Well done ❤

[@MFGBSOLUTIONS]

Absolutely Rwandaful views 🤩 Well done ladies. Of course you were with the amazing female cycling tour guide Violette. Overall great video filled with stunning landscapes, food and beautiful faces.

[@TyronDeakin]

what an epic journey, from South Africa and would love to explore the rest of Africa on my bike

[@alanbenham4139]

Super VLOG Maddy. What an experience.

[@bazimyan]

Wow, you're impressive. I hope you enjoy Rwanda

[@Moriseifel]

You are amazing! ❤️

[@Richz2]

I don’t think I will ever complain again about riding up hills again, when I see Rwandans riding a basic bike, wearing sandals & having two heavy milk churns straps to their bikes.Huge respect for these lovely people. I expect to see you employ the new ‘resistant training methods’ ie strap a 6ft door to your bike.

[@maddynutt]

Literally what we were saying. No hill complaints watching serious watts being pushed out to transport things!!

[@joenutt8647]

Hope you weren't too hard on Lucie... and what astoundingly lovely scenery and warm-hearted street life. 😊

[@maddynutt]

next fam trip?

[@awindwaker9829]

Stunning place! How much were flights from London? 🫠

[@maddynutt]

We flew with Rwandair. Actually wasn't ridiculously pricey and they were such a good airline. 2 x 23kg bags means you can bring lots of nutrition too
