Lack of funding coupled with concerns over the safety of the cyclists has forced the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) to pull out of participating in the Tour of Tobago.
This was disclosed by Racing Secretary, Malcolm Soonaram. The event is set to commence today.
“The GCF did not raise enough funds to participate in the Tour of Tobago,” Soonaram told Stabroek Sport.
The GCF had already named Micheal Anthony, Jornel Yearwood of Linden Bauxite Flyers, Team Evolution’s Paul DeNobrega and Trojan’s Curtis Dey to compete at the meet.
