The Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) will field a six-member team for the ninth Junior Caribbean Cycling Championships which is slated for Suriname on October 4 and 5.

The team comprises Michael Anthony, Akeem Arthur, Stephano Husbands and Alonzo Ambrose, while Andrew hicks and Raphael Leung will compete in the juvenile category.
Anthony won the juvenile gold medal in 2012 while Arthur placed second in the 2013.
According to GCF’s president Cheryl Thompson, Guyana should have secured gold medals in both categories last year but the local riders had mechanical problems which prevented this.
She however said this year would be different since the GCF is leaving no stones unturned to ensure that this talented bunch of cyclists do Guyana proud.
Anthony, Husbands, Leung and Ambrose have all been very active this year both on the highways of Guyana as well as in the National park, Thanks to national cycle coach Hassan Mohamed who has been the driving force for local cyclists over the years.
This means that the young team has enough mileage in their legs as against their Caribbean counterparts who compete in lesser races each year.
