48-year-old Phillip Clarke wins 40th Independence Three-Stage Cycle Race

Another sparkle of the race was 15-year-old Alexander Leung, completing all three stages on his way to deserved Juniors title.

Director of Sport, Steve Ninvalle, charged the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) to invest in programme to develop the youths since “they are the future”.

Furthermore, Ninvalle asked the GCF to consider hosting a five-stage event and to incorporate courses outside of the norm in Berbice and Demerara, and assured the NSC will continue to assist.
