KARCC asserted its dominance throughout the event, achieving an impressive tally of four podium finishes. The crown jewel was undoubtedly Jamaul’s triumphant first-place finish in the Men’s senior’s category. The excellence didn’t end there, with three more remarkable performances: Ajuni Cutting secured second place in the juniors division, Alexis Mendes claimed the runner-up position in the Masters U50 category, and Abigail Jeffery showcased her cycling prowess with a commendable second-place finish in the Women’s event.

Cyclists made their spirited return along the East Coast, culminating in an exhilarating finish on Carifesta Avenue.
