In Rwanda, cyclists rev up a nation


U.S. enthusiasts help build team in a place where biking is a way of life.

BUTARE, Rwanda - Daniel Cooper was steering his bike up into the lush hills of northwestern Rwanda, taking in the scene's beauty, when he realized he wasn't riding alone.
Someone was behind the Chicago-area stock trader, pedaling hard and gaining ground on the long rocky incline. Soon villagers were lining the road, cheery wildly, and Cooper was locked in an impromptu race.
