The annual Courts Furniture Store cycle road race sponsored by the Courts Berbice branch is now set for today in the Ancient County.
The race, which is being organised by the Flying Ace Cycle Club (FACC), has been brought forward by one day to today due to the fact that another event, the Forbes Burnham Memorial Cycle road race is set for the said day.
All other arrangements remain the same. The event is open to cyclists throughout the country and is expected to see all the top riders in the country in action.
The 50 miles event will pedal off from in front of the Courts Furniture Store at Main and St Ann’s Street New Amsterdam, Berbice, proceed to Nand Persaud Business Complex at No 36, Village Corentyne before returning to finish at its place of origin.
Prizes will be awarded to the first eight finishers in the open category, the top three veterans and the top three juniors. There will also be eight sprint point prizes up for grabs.
Starting time is 09:00 hrs and officials from The Courts Furniture store are expected to be on hand to start the race and distribute the prizes. (Samuel Whyte)
