Kaieteur Sports – The Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) yesterday announced the successful completion of the Road Cycling Training Camp, held at the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Continental Development Satellite in Couva, Trinidad and Tobago, from June 30 to July 8. This camp aimed to enhance the skills and performance of emerging cyclists in the region.
Three talented cyclists from Guyana participated in the camp: Alexander Leung, Sidwell Sandy, and Aaron Newton. They underwent intensive training sessions designed to improve endurance, speed, and tactical understanding of road cycling, all under the guidance of top UCI coaches and experts.
Alexander Leung, known for his remarkable endurance and consistency, focused on improving his long-distance riding capabilities and race strategies.

The camp featured a variety of training modules, including endurance training, speed workouts, tactical sessions, technical skills, and nutrition and recovery.
The athletes also engaged in knowledge-sharing sessions, learning from experienced coaches and interacting with fellow cyclists from different countries. These interactions offered valuable insights and fostered camaraderie among the participants.
The GCF has extended heartfelt gratitude to Wayne DeAbreu of the Continental Cycling Club and the UCI Continental Development Satellite for hosting the camp and providing an exceptional training experience.
The federation is confident that the skills and knowledge gained by Sidwell Sandy, Alexander Leung, and Aaron Newton will significantly contribute to their future success in competitive cycling, both in and outside of Guyana.
