Flying Ace suspends indiscipline cyclist
The Flying Ace Cycle Club (FACC) of Berbice has taken the tough decision to ban one of its cyclists for acts of indiscipline. The cyclist being punished is Brian Harris who has been suspended for three months. Harris’s punishment was slapped on him for his actions during the recently held Banks Premium 40- mile cycle road race.
Although Harris did not participate in the event he rode along with some of the cyclist. Cycling coach Randolph Roberts told the media that Harris was warned about his actions and told to desist from doing so, but Harris continued to flout the rules although he is well aware that what he was doing was against the rules.
Roberts stated that when approached again Harris became abusive and continued to ride along with the cyclists although he was not involved in the event.
Another official also approached Harris and asked him to desist from what he was doing. But the young man responded with an obscene gesture.
Roberts stated that it is not the first time that he has been involved in acts of indiscipline and tried to smudge the reputation of the club.
The three month ban will commence from January 1 and will run until 31st March 2013. In the meantime he will not be allowed to participate in any event organized by the FACC. According to Roberts the Guyana Cycling Federation will be informed of the ban and has the authority to extend it to events which are sanctioned by that body.
