Warren ‘Forty’ Mc Kay of Continental Cycle Club once again rode a commanding race to win the feature 35 lap event at the 18th annual R&R International sponsored 11-race cycle programme held yesterday at the National Park.
Mc Kay, just off victory in the Cheddi Jagan Memorial in Berbice last Sunday, maintained his winning momentum by clocking a time of one hour 21 minutes 45 seconds and in the process he defeated last years winner Christopher Holder (1′ 25mins 14.27secs) who had to settle for 3rd behind fellow junior, Geron Williams.
Lear Nunes, Darren Allen and Enzo Matthews closed out the top six.
Mc Kay was so dominant in the race that he pocketed all 8 prime prizes a feat that has not been achieved in a long time.
The winner, Holder and Williams led the race from about lap 13 before Mc Kay stepped up the pace leaving both Holder and Williams behind.
Holder, in repeating as winner of the junior race (24mins 14.28secs) also lowered last years mark of 26mins 25.32secs.
Canadian based Wilbert Benjamin took top spot in the veteran under-50 clash ahead of Junior Niles and Kennard Lovell in that order. The over-50 division went to Anthony Fariah who was followed by Maurice Fagundes and Aubrey Gravesande. Fariah also won a special trophy donated by Woodpecker Trophy Products for the first over-60 finisher.
In other results 1st – 3rd: 12-14 Jason Pollydore, Marcia Dick (Berbice), Tariq Baksh.
Upright – Ozia McAulay, Lawrence Boston, Andrew Monique.
BMX 6-9 & 9-12 – Raymond Perez, Dineshwar Ragubeer, Jamal Mc Kay.
BMX 12-14 – Jamal Cromwell, Akeem Lakon, Alexander Pereira.
Henry Rambarran Jr. represented sponsor Jacob Rambarran at the presentation ceremony following yesterday’s races.
The next National Park race is set for Saturday 21st while the attention will switch back to the road on Sunday 22nd for the Cheddi Jagan West Demerara showdown.
