Lucas Brunelle Goes to Africa (on a Hobo)


Lucas Brunelle goes to Africa from Cinelli Official on Vimeo.

The short-film “Lucas Brunelle goes to Africa”, exclusively shown on preview during the Road World Championships in Florence, is now online on at CinelliTV https://vimeo.com/76049367. We are talking about an incredible 7 minutes-long video filmed by Lucas Brunelle, the most famous film maker in the alternative and urban cycling worlds. Produced by Cinelli and edited by Benny Zenga during the 11th edition of the Tour d’Afrique (12.000 Km, 8 stages, 80 riders), ultimate test for Cinelli's new bike designed for touring and adventure: Cinelli Hobo. Double-butted steel frame with never-rust treatment, a great mix of CycloCross and Touring geometries for a “sprinting comfort”, Tubus Carriers, fenders, three bottlecage supports and oversize down tube: just some of the many amazing features of Hobo. The latest Cinelli icon. Following the steps of Laser, Rampichino, Bootleg and Fixies, Cinelli once again invents a new way to cycle and to interpret cycling! Hobo: Hit the road quick! Enjoy it! Team Cinelli.

Cinelli Tour d’Afrique



After the first experience in Uganda, BOOTLEG starts a new Africa adventure to test the "Racing Rats" along the world’s longest bicycle race: The Tour d’Afrique, an 11,693 km bicycle expedition and race from Cairo to Cape Town.

Traveling more than 70 miles per day, 50 racers and expedition riders will experience the boundless Nubian desert of Sudan, the great majesty of Victoria Falls, and finally the cold rush of the Atlantic Ocean.

The Racing Rats will be ridden by Tour Leader Sharita Van der Merwe, the Race Director Cristiano Wernick, and the Medic Claire Peglar.

Cinelli/Tour d’Afrique cycling caps and T-shirts will be on sale on Cinelli Genuine Merchandise website with the intent of raising 3000 Euros with the proceeds being given to the Tour d’Afrique Foundation to use in purchasing bicycles during the 2013 Tour d’Afrique expedition. The merchandise will be available here soon.
