The roadways of Berbice came alive yesterday morning under blistering sunshine as the country’s best cyclists gathered for the second leg of the Jagan’s Memorial Cycling Road Race in New Amsterdam, Berbice. However, when the dust settled after 71 gruelling miles, it was Briton John who ruled the roost yet again.
Extending his streak to four in four so far since the turn of the year, John soloed to victory unchallenged in 3 hours, 15 minutes, and 10 seconds, well ahead of his nearest challenger, Curtis Dey, who came over three minutes behind the race winner.
Dey was followed by Paul Cho Wee Nam, Alexander Leung, Alex Mendes, and Aaron Newton, who were all spaced out to occupy the third through sixth positions in that order.
