BICYCLE AFRICA: PEOPLE to PEOPLE
it's not as hard as you think!
Submitted by David Mozer

BICYCLE AFRICA's people-to-people programs offer you the
unique opportunity to discover a fascinating and diverse
continent at a personal level.   Most tourists see only
congested cities, animals in game parks and other tourists.
Bicycle travel removes the barriers between you, the land and its people. BICYCLE AFRICA explores untouristed rural areas and experience the sights, sounds, tastes and vitality of African life. We enjoy leisurely interactions with people during visits to homes, schools and markets and sharing ideas with traditional villagers, urbanites, students and officials, and generally being awed by Africa’s hospitality and extraordinary landscape. Learn of developments and achievements and the complexity and diversity of Africa that rarely come to the attention of the West. Specialists with a broad knowledge of Africa accompany each group. Topics range from art to zoology--while local culture, ecology, economics, and history are also explored. You return with hours of stories to tell from your firsthand experiences. BICYCLE AFRICA offers both the resources and social opportunities of group travel with flexibility to pursue personal interests.   If you are new to African travel or bicycling, the program will build your self-confidence and increase your self-sufficiency. BICYCLE AFRICA tours are for all who appreciate the rewards of self-contained bicycle touring. You should be prepared to encounter customs, cuisines, attitudes, accommodations and living standards which differ from your own. Africans respond warmly to an attitude of friendship and respect. Men and women from every continent, ranging in age from nine to seventy have toured with Bicycle Africa. In fact, most trips have repeat customers. You don't need extensive bicycle touring experience, however; you should be healthy, familiar with cycling and prepared for adventure. The cycling is moderate with occasional challenging sections. Extra side trips are available for the more active. editor's note: you DO need your own bike! BICYCLE AFRICA is a combination of unique opportunities, personal achievement and new friends--
