The 22nd edition of the competition hosts 11 foreign teams this year. The stages that the cyclists will cover were presented on September 14th.
The Chantal Biya International Cycling Race will finally take place. Even if its organization was shaken by budgetary constraints, the organizing committee was able to readjust to win the bet of the organization. This earned them the congratulations of the Minister of Sports and Physical Education, Prof Narcisse Mouelle Kombi.
He made known his appreciation last September 14 during the official presentation of the competition. The cycling race, which has reached its 22nd edition this year, is experiencing some innovations, as the organizing committee suggests.
