MOUNTAIN BIKE CHALLENGE<br />
The 2020 Tropic Air 10to4 will take place<br />
on 14th-16th February 2020, starting at<br />

Mount Kenya and ending on the savannahs<br />
of Borana Conservancy at 4,000ft.<br />
Having started in 2002 as a very small<br />
mountain biking event, with just a handful<br />
of riders, this event has grown to over 350<br />
competitors from across the globe, raising<br />
over US$80,000. With courses for all<br />
abilities, this annual event provides a unique<br />
opportunity for people to enjoy Mount<br />
Kenya and its beautiful surrounding wildlife<br />
conservancies, whilst raising critical funds for<br />
Mount Kenya Trust’s community projects and<br />
mountain conservation. www.10to4.org<br />
