Following is the full text of the GCF’s facebook statement:
“One of Guyana’s top cyclist’s, Alanzo Greaves is facing suspension for a positive Anti-Doping test. I can confirm Mr. Alanzo Greaves has tested positive for a prohibited substance. He was tested on Sunday November 1, 2015 at the tour of Guyana.
Mr. Alanzo Greaves was notified by the Regional Anti-Doping Organization (RADO).
Members of the GCF would like to thank Mrs. Karen Pilgrim and the Guyana Olympic Association for conducting these tests. With these random tests that were conducted, not only Alanzo Greaves has tested positive but cyclists from Barbados, Jamaica and Columbia also tested positive.
The Guyana Cycling Federation will continue to work closely with the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) to continue to conduct random testing and to bring order to the sport that we all love.”
