As the days wind down for his departure, Guyanese Differently Able cyclist Walter Grant-Stuart’s quest to shine on debut for Guyana at the UCI C1 Para-Cycling Event which would be held April 28th – 29th at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, Montreal, Canada has been boosted.
Yesterday, the Continental Cycle Club (CCC) member was presented with cash donations from the Guyana Cycling Association of North America (GCANA), Rudolph ‘Duckie’ Apiah, Kevin Jeffery and Andrew King towards expenses associated with the trip.
Some of the members of the GCANA, all former cyclists are Monty Davis, Gavin Lowman, Victor Rutherford, Aubrey Gordon and Cecil ‘Dallas’ Bernard.
In handing over the donations, Guyana Cycling Federation Racing Secretary Hassan Mohamed, who also works as a Cycle Coach attached to the National Sports Commission, told Grant-Stuart that he was fortunate to have the support of the persons who all want to see him succeed on his debut trip in national colours.
”I would like to wish you well on behalf of the donors as you endeavour on this mission in Canada. Like anything else, the battle would not be easy but you have been preparing well over the past few months and I am sure you will compete with a lot of heart.”
Grant-Stuart, in a bid to get attuned to the conditions in Canada will be leaving Guyana on April 14th. He expressed thanks to the donors and has promised to represent the Golden Arrowhead with pride come April 28th and 29th, next when he competes in the Time Trials and Road Race.
