The Chantal Biya International Mountain Bike (VTT) Race, once regarded solely as a sports competition, is pivoting toward a more strategic role. For its third edition, the event is designed to serve as a major engine for regional economic appeal.
On June 29, 2026, Bertoua, the capital of the East region, will host the race, highlighting its potential to draw investment and interest to the area. By evolving into a tool for territorial marketing, this competition seeks to transform the local landscape and bolster the economic standing of the entire province.
