    • One Bike Tanzania

      Feb 2018 - now
      Owner & Founder

      One Bike is a community-based social enterprise of bicycle enthusiasts with the mission to improve the lives of people in our community and to promote responsible tourism through bicycle lifestyle. I run a unique Bike Shop & Repair and offer cultural-adventure cycling tours around Kilimanjaro region as well as local tours around Moshi City. With that, not only it is possible to generate income to support the projects, but to employ local guides and encourage foreign travelers to give back to the local communities and to their own. Developing and organizing the tours and social projects, negotiating, buying, marketing, connecting supporters, partering with organizations are part of my daily routine. Building this business.

    • Tour de Kili

      May 2020 - now
      Founder - Race Director

      Tour de Kili is a mountain bike race on the slope of the “roof of Africa”, Mount Kilimanjaro. It is an ideal race for someone looking for a well-organized stage race that is affordable and fun, one you can actually complete no matter your skill and fitness level. As Tour de Kili aims to bring people together, you’ll experience sharing your love for cycling with both locals and internationals. On top of that, as it is organised by the local social enterprise One Bike Tanzania the revenues from the registration fees will be used to fund one of their social projects: Women on Bike. As a mountain biking goal it is a lifetime achievement award, a top three on the bucket list, what some people have said is the “best week of my life”. What better way to travel than by doing what you love in an amazing location while having a positive social impact! Show less
