BUA Cycling Programme

Brief History

The BUA Cycling Programme for youth empowerment, founded in 2013 in Nairobi Kenya, stands out with a unique mission - "Changing the lives of the youth and community through cycling." We are keen on promoting cycling as a sport and as an efficient means of transport that is Eco-friendly and healthy, and our commitment to community impact resonates with our values.

The BUA Cycling Programme, is one of the most diverse in the region and caters to competitive and recreational cyclists of all ages and categories. Representing diverse cycling interest, our team engages in competitive races, rider development, event promotion, cycling tours and charitable activities in order to promote the non profit goals we intend to achieve for the benefit of the community..

PHEBEY Collaboration

BUA Development Team

Building Africa (BUA) cycling Programme in partnership with Tripollo Cycling Club has a development team called Tripollo Cycling Team. The programme created a team with a focus on youth empowerment and development.

BUA (Non-Profit organization) has supported a cycling base camp based in Nanyuki and through this, we have identified 40 youth with great potential with the youngest being 10 years old. Whom we have enrolled in the training programme.

In the future, the programme hopes to start 2 more base camps in the Rift valley region and in the Western part of Kenya to further increase project reach and impact.
