Ian Boswell is in Kenya for the Migration Gravel Race (June 23-26) but the winner of Unbound Gravel is in Africa for more than just the four-day event.

The American gravel racer will be competing against a field of European riders and some of the best African athletes, including those from the Amani Foundation team, which is a project that will reward the best domestic riders with a chance of competing at several high profile gravel races back in the United States later this summer.
