Mountain race "Silk Road" will be held in Kyrgyzstan for the first time

Bishkek, July 18, 2018 / Kabar /. Mountain race "Silk Road" will be held in Kyrgyzstan for the first time, Director of the Tourism Department Azamat Zhamankulov told reporters at Kabar News Agency. 95 athletes from 26 countries will participate in it from August 18 to September 1. "This is a mountain bike race, that is, athletes will ride on roads where there is no route," Zhamankulov said. He also added that the idea belongs to author of the Nelson Tris project, when he first visited the territory of Kyrgyzstan. "When I saw this country, I fell in love with its beauty, and immediately there was an idea organize such a race", commented Tris. The organizers hope that this is not a one-off event and will be repeated every year.
