Day 6 flew by like no other!

We observed tired faces, some final mechanical problems and a LOT of cheering at the finish, where previous finishers were welcoming new friends made on the road back home ♥️.

In 12 hours from now the finish party will be well on the way and we’ll have a crowd ready for our final finishers 🎉! Hope you’re ready for a BIG BANG! 💣

On the road again 🚴🚴‍♀️

More and more riders are hitting the final gravel sector. Realizing that most of the hard work is done and soon they’ll have great stories to tell from past week’s adventure 💪!

We’re around @tugende.rwanda to welcome more riders this afternoon - let the weekend begin! 🍻

6 more finishers made it back after midnight, each with incredible stories to tell 🤩.

For many others, today brings the highly anticipated final stretch 🏁

We rode alongside some riders leaving CP4 this morning, with only 130km to go to the finish line. Tired but nevertheless in good spirits, they showed us the beauty that ultra brings on day 6.

Are you ready for the weekend?
T-1 day to the finish party and our final finisher!

By the end of day 5, we expect about 50 riders to have finished the Race Around Rwanda 2025 🥳!

Alongside celebrations, today also brought scratches. As expected, it was one of many highs 🔋 and some lows 🪫 , equally represented by blistering morning sun to heavy rain showers 🌧️.

We’re incredibly proud of our participants pushing through and are excited to welcome more of the field tomorrow 🤩.

Good night!
