Bike for Burundi: A Ride Across One Country for the Future of Another

Bike For Burundi started out as four men cycling over 3,000 miles across America from San Diego to Charleston to raise money for one of the poorest countries in the world. Their epic adventure included highs and lows as they persevered through sandstorms, over snow-capped mountains and across desolate deserts. It was a race against time and a battle against the elements. They were run off the road by a biker gang and attacked by numerous packs of feral dogs. They had to deal with the loss of a team member medically evacuated by helicopter, several spectacular crashes, multiple injuries, hallucinations, dehydration, mind games, road-kill, and more.

Spurred on by the urgent situation back in Burundi, they defied the odds to complete their task through blood, sweat and tears-some of pain, others of laughter! Relive the adventure through Simon Guillebaud's vivid, moving and hilarious recounting of events and people they met along the way on what was the journey of a lifetime!
