West Nile is making preparations to stage a five-day cycling race that will take riders through 13 districts, according to Uganda Radionetwork.
The broadcaster reported the plans on Thursday, 5 November 2026, describing the event as a multi-day race spanning the sub-region. Uganda Radionetwork did not, in the material available, give the race dates, the route, the number of competitors or the organisers behind the event.
The announcement points to a race designed to cover ground across more than a dozen districts rather than a single-day event in one location. Beyond that outline, Uganda Radionetwork's report did not provide further details on how the race will be run or who will take part.
Multi-day races of this kind place demands on riders and on the districts that host stages, and the involvement of 13 districts suggests the event will be spread across a wide area of West Nile.
What to watch next: confirmation of the race dates, the full route and the list of participating riders, which Uganda Radionetwork's initial report did not include.
