Cyclists in Berbice will once again have a chance to test their mettle on Sunday 15th December when the Flying Ace Cycling club teams up with beverage giants Banks DIH Limited to stage the inaugural Banks Malta Supreme 40-mile cycle road race.

Doing the honours at the simple presentation ceremony was Berbice Sales Manager Joshua Torrezao. He stated that sponsoring the race is part of the company continued assistance in giving back to the community especially at the festive season. This is the second cycle race being sponsored by the company for Berbice cyclists in collaboration with the FACC following the successful staging of the ‘Aqua Mist’ race earlier this year.
The Malta Supreme is a new product on the market and the organizers plans to make this an annual event.
The race will ride off from in front of Banks DIH New Amsterdam Branch at Main and New Streets in New Amsterdam and proceed to Adventure on the Corentyne before returning to its place of origin.
Prizes will be awarded to the first six finishers in the open category, while the first two juniors, the first two females, first veteran and first four beginners will be rewarded.
The female cyclists will cover ten miles, while all the others will go the full distance.
Coordinator and Coach of the club, Randolph Roberts, thanked Banks DIH for their continued assistance especially towards the FACC. Roberts also took the opportunity to thank other sponsors and donors who would have assisted the club through the year including Water Chris Hotel, Guyana Beverage Company, Hand in hand, Kings Jewelry World, the Guyana Police Force, A. Ally and Sons, Furniture World and Stretch ‘D’ Dollar Supermarket among others.
