Warming up for this weekend’s Junior Caribbean Cycle Road Race Championships in Barbados were Nigel Duguid and Briton John who placed 1st and 2nd respectively in this division, third was Adealie Hodge.
Junior Niles had to play second best to Warren Mc Kay in the veteran class with Ian ‘Deaf Boy’ Jackson coming third. In the mountain bike clash, Talim Shaw crossed the line ahead of Julio Melville and Ozia Mc Cually in that order. The oldest cyclist competing yesterday was Monty ‘Trucker’ Parris.
Powerade Brand Manager Errol Nelson, before handing over the prizes, congratulated the respective winners and other top performers without whom the event would not have been a success.
Nelson also noted that Banks DIH was more than pleased to be once again able to power the riders in the trade that they love for another year and will continue to support their development.
