All set for Furniture World Cycle race today
A number of questions are expected to be answered today when the cyclists pedal off for the inaugural Furniture World 50 miles cycle road race organised by the Flying Ace Cycling club. The race, which is expected to bring together all of the top riders in Berbice, will pedal off from in front of the popular Furniture World establishment at Main and King Street in New Amsterdam and race to No 35 Village before turning back in front of The Nand Persaud Business establishment and head back to its place of origin.
A grueling encounter is expected between top cyclists Neil Reece and Dwight Holder. Holder has been in top form so far for this year with three consecutive wins, missed the last race due to unforeseen circumstances, while Reece returned to form and rode brilliantly to win handsomely. Thus today’s encounter is expected to bring out the best of the two men.
A part from the two riders, one should not overlook other riders in Elijah Brijadder, Ray Millington, Wasim Hassnu and Rohan Persaud who are always among the top finishers . Top female rider Marica Dick is expected to take charge among the females.
The race is being staged against the scourge of Domestic Violence and will see prizes being awarded to the top six finishers, the first six beginners along with the top veteran and female rider. There will also be six prime point prizes up for grabs.
The females and beginners will pedal off from Adventure on the downward journey.
The coordinator is Randolph Roberts.
