Action in the eighth annual Hand-in-Hand Insurance Company 11-race cycling programme is billed for Saturday at the inner circuit of the National Park.
According to national coach and organiser of the event, Hassan Mohamed, the event will pedal off at 09:00 hours and will provide local riders with another opportunity to monitor their readiness ahead of the sixth annual Five-Stage race from October 11-14.
A new champion will be crowned in the feature 35-lap School Boys and Invitational race, since last year’s winner Godfrey Pollydore is campaigning in Anguilla and will not be here for the race.
He won the event in a time of one hour, 15 minutes, 06 seconds (01h: 15m: 06s) in 2011.
Other winners last year included Neil Reece in the Juveniles, Phillip Piggot in the Veterans Under-50 and Mario King in the Upright category. Apart from those events, there will be races for BMX riders.
Hand-in-Hand will once again give away BMX cycles to three promising riders as its contribution to the annual ‘Teach Them Young’ programme, a gesture done over the past seven years.
Officials of Hand-in-Hand Insurance Company are expected to witness the races and later assist in the presentation of prizes.
