Chris Froome is back in Africa. Racing on his home continent for the first time in 14 years, the four-time Tour de France winner finds himself at a crossroads in his career.
Will he ever return to the upper echelons of the bunch, or will he continue to lack the form that has eluded him since the horror accident that almost killed him in 2019?
This film offers an intimate snapshot of a cycling legend through the lens of a week of colourful and chaotic racing at the Tour du Rwanda.
What form is Froome in as he builds up to the 2023 Tour de France? And does he really believe that he still has what it takes to compete against the best?
_Froome: Back in Africa_ will be available to watch exclusively on GCN+ from Tuesday 13 June 2023.
