Sierra Leone’s Tour de Lunsar is a showcase for the country’s talent, aiming to open doors for aspiring young athletes
The half-finished, two-storey roundabout at the centre of Lunsar is not much to look at – a circular concrete shell that one day, maybe, will be finished and become a clock tower similar to those in nearby Makeni and Port Loko.
Until then, however, once a year it becomes the prime viewing platform for the Science In Sport Tour de Lunsar, Sierra Leone’s largest bicycle race.
