`Fishy’ Williams to defend R&R Int’l 35-lap title

MARLON `Fishy’ Williams will tomorrow attempt to make a successful defence of his 35-lap title when National cycle coach Hassan Mohamed organises the 24th edition of the R&R International Limited 11-race cycle programme around the inner circuit of the National Park, beginning at 09:00hrs.Last year Williams stopped the clock at one hour 19 minutes 10 seconds to claim the top position and this year, riding for Team Evolution, Williams can expect valuable support from his team members Orville Hinds, Michael Anthony and Stephen Fernandes.

Williams won the first race of the 2015 season at the same venue a few weeks ago and a repeat tomorrow can be expected.
The 10-lap race for juveniles is another one that can see Raul Leal make a successful defence of that title. Last year Leal clocked 23 minutes 09.07 seconds and this year he can eclipse that time, since from the start of the season he has been in good nick.
Jamal John, another upcoming cyclist with potential, will be defending his Boys and Girls 12-14 five-lap title which he won last year in a time of 12 minutes 55 seconds.
Last year, Ralph Williams won the veterans Under-50 five-lap race with a time of 14 minutes 07 seconds. However, this year he will be hard-pressed to successfully defend his title as he will have to face the likes of Junior Niles, Linden Blackman, Kennard Lovell and a host of other top performers in this category.
Other events on the day’s card include three-lap races for BMX Boys 9-12 years old, a two-lap race for boys 6-9 years old and a five-lap race for veterans over 50 years old.
Former cyclist, sports enthusiast and Managing Director of R&R International Limited, Jacob Rambarran, and his son Jacob Jr are expected to start the event as well as assist in the presentation of prizes to the respective winners.
