Berbician based Trojan Cycle Club’s duo of Romello Crawford and Curtis Dey placed their stamp on the third Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) Points Race when they placed first and second yesterday.
Pedaling off from the Ocean View International Hotel, Rupert Craig Highway, Lilliendaal, Greater Georgetown just after 09:00hrs yesterday where 28 riders faced starter’s orders, the Berbicians worked as a team and made their move just before the turn back point at the Abary Bridge.
They were never caught even as the chasing bunch tried their utmost to reconnect and completed the almost 80-miles battle at Ocean View in Three hours 04 Minutes 11 Seconds. Guyana Police Force and Team United’s Mario King placed third, followed by Guyana Defence Force and Team Alanis’ Alanzo Ambrose, Lear Nunes, Ian ‘Deaf Boy’ Jackson, Jaikarran Sukhai, Warren Mc Kay, Deeraj Garbarran and Junior Niles closing out the top 10 places.
Points are rewarded to the top ten placers; 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. The winner of the first two races and still the current point’s leader, Jamal John did not compete yesterday but was present during the race.
The second placed rider overall, Andrew Hicks is currently training in the USA.
