Course Details

Three routes on offer. Race 1, the 110km Elite circuit, heads out from KCAU along Outering Road to Cabanas, Ole Sereni, and the Southern Bypass, before returning via Museum Hill back to KCAU - a genuine road-racing distance across Nairobi's ring roads. Race 2, the 12.3km Fun Ride, is a shorter loop out to Muthaiga Square, AAR Hospital, and La Mada Hotel before returning to KCAU. The Family/Children ride is a short 5.1km out-and-back to Muthaiga Square. Road bikes are appropriate for all three routes; expect Nairobi city traffic and road conditions on the 110km course.

Getting There

KCA University's Ruaraka Campus is on Thika Road (A2), approximately 6.5km northeast of Nairobi CBD. From the CBD, the fastest route is via Murang'a Road and the Embu-Nairobi Highway/Thika Road, taking exit 5 onto Utalii Lane, which leads directly to the campus - around 13 minutes depending on traffic.
