Cyclists will have another opportunity to fine tune their preparations ahead of this year’s NSC Independence 3-Stage Road Race, when the Roraima Bikers Club (RBC) in association with Guyana Beverage Inc. under their VIVA Water brand, sponsors a Cycling Classic tomorrow.
The event, which will have attractive cash incentives on offer as has become a practice when the RBC brings off such events, will take place at the Seawall Bandstand Circuit pedaling off from 10:00hrs.
This event will take the form of a 50 Lap contest which will provide vital exposure ahead of the 3-Stage event which will pedal off on Saturday May 18 in the Ancient County of Berbice. The Open race will see the first six finishers receiving prizes as well the first three juniors and veterans and the first two females. That apart, there will be 15-Sprint prizes worth $1,000 each up for the taking.  Representatives of Guyana Beverages Inc. will be on hand to witness the event and to assist with the presentation of prizes.
Meanwhile, Managing Director of GBI, Mr. Robert Selman recently handed over the sponsorship cheque to President of RBC Brain Allen at the company’s Diamond Head Office.
Selman noted that he was pleased to be associated with the club and the event which will create another opportunity for the cyclists to showcase their talent in a competitive atmosphere.
