Christopher Holder is the reigning junior champion, Linden’s Hazine Barrett will defend her female title, while Berbice’ Gary Benjamin is the current veteran king.
The respective category winners will be pushed hard to retain their reign as their colleagues and rivals await the opportunity to unseat them and take glory and bragging rights for the next year.

Senior competitors will proceed to the Abary Bridge before returning for the finish in front of Ocean View. Junior riders will turn back at Half Way Tree, Mahaicony, while the veterans and females will make their way through the Mahaica Old Road, return through the New Road before making their way down for the finish.
