Motorbikes
During this trip you ride on a Haojin 200cc or equivalent motorbike
Difficulty and Offroad
During this trip we do not ride at significant heights. The bad slippery roads (particularly after rain) can make travel heavy; however, this will probably only last a few days. About 80% of the route is on asphalt roads, which are often of remarkably good quality. Most gravel roads are also in decent conditions. For a small part of the trip, we ride on more challenging unpaved roads. The quality of these roads is very different.
Accommodation
During this trip you will stay in comfortable hotels and decent guesthouses. Some places are basic, family-run accommodations, but are the nicest options in town.
Climate
Rwanda has two rainy seasons. In spring, from March to May and from October to November in autumn. Since this trip is just below the equator the average temperature throughout the year is 25-30 degrees at daytime. At evenings and at hights, we travel at altitudes of 1500-2500 meter. It can be chilly.
Clothing
Mandatory items include a helmet, motorcycle jacket with protection, gloves, a good strong pair of (motorcycle) trousers with protection or separate knee armour, and sturdy high (mountain) boots. Furthermore, we recommend bringing a good pair of sunglasses, lip balm and sunscreen as well as a helmet with a visor or a good pair of glasses that also protects against the dust of unpaved roads. Pack also a sweater for the chilly moments.
Insurance
Motorcycles have compulsory basic liability insurance, which is also valid in Rwanda. Damage to the motorcycle itself cannot be insured.
Visa
For most nationalities, there is a visa requirement to enter Rwanda. The visa can be obtained online, and can also be bought upon arrival
