Despite failing in their quest to return with medals from the Junior Caribbean Cycling Championships, the five young local teen riders would have gained valuable experience and exposure following the event this past weekend in Barbados.
On Saturday, when the time trials were held, juvenile cyclist, Jonathan Ramsuchit was Guyana’s highest finisher, placing sixth in a time of 17m:06.33s for the one-lap (10.1km) event.
His fellow countryman, David Hicks did not start in the event which was won by Trinidad and Tobago’s Enrique De Comarmo (14:08.35s). Bermuda’s Nicholas Garraway (15:07.08s) and Rene Gayral (15:37.37s) of Antigua and Barbuda filled out the podium spots.
