Renting bicycles with tourists from Spain to tour Ssese Island.
Many tourists and travelers in Uganda are looking for ways to explore destinations in an eco-friendly manner and cycling offers an adventurous way to see several sights. CFF was contacted by a team of 6 tourists from Spain to rent our bikes and tour a popular tourist destination Ssese which is made up of 84 islands. The team moved with 6 mountain bicycles and 2 our CFF’s mechanics, Andrew and Michael and the activities on the islands included fishing, cycling and boating and the island attracts both the local and foreign tourists due to its accountable beaches hence providing memorable holidays and vacations. With CFF you can rent high quality mountain and e-bikes and profits from bike rentals support CFF’s programs.
Today the 6th of May 2024, the Northwood bicycle was won by teacher Seth for the town schools raffle program.
Seth Mwebasa is a Primary Seven Mathematics teacher at Sir Appollo Kaggwa Primary School in Kisasi. CFF organized a bicycle raffle program for primary teachers amongst 10 schools. Seth eventually won the bicycle raffle for his outstanding teaching role at the school. The school is acknowledged by the Ministry of Education for producing the best performing math’s students in the country. Seth is one of the best mathematics teachers in the country and has taught many students in different primary schools. He noted that winning the Northwood bicycle saved him paying Shs.10,000 transport fare from Kyebando to the school in Kisasi every day, “shillings 10,000 is a lot of money to pay daily, a bicycle will save me time as I’m never caught up in jam compared to using public commuter taxis”. The bicycle will also make it easier for me to attend teachers mathematics workshops and professional development opportunities that may be inaccessible due to lack of reliable transportation. With reduced travel time, teachers may have more time for personal activities, reduce stress and increase overall job satisfaction.
