WE Stand United cyclist Briton John completed the herculean feat of winning all three stages by quite some distance to be crowned champion of the 41st Independence Three-Stage Cycle Road Race on Sunday afternoon.

John won the seniors’ category, followed by Trinidadian Enriques De Camarand, Cortis Dey, Joryn Simpson, Robin Persaud and Paul DeNobrega.
More so, Trinidadian Chyanne Awai mirrored John in the female category with a sweep of her races.

According to veteran cyclists at the finish line on Sunday, this is the first time such a feat occurred for male and female seniors.
More so, it was reported that John produced record times in the first two stages.

In stage one, 40 miles (from Corriverton to New Amsterdam), John clocked one hour, 44 minutes, and 05 seconds. In stage two, Berbice Bridge, D’Edward Village to Carifesta Avenue, Georgetown (62 miles), he had a time of two hours, 22 minutes, and 5.95 seconds.

In the final stage from Linden to Homestretch Avenue (approximately 65 miles), he had a time of two hours, 47 minutes, and 46 seconds.
More so, the budding talent of Alexander Leung was the top junior, while Alex Newton won the juvenile title.

The veteran titles were won by Roy Mangru, Ian Jackson, and Robin Persaud.
The races, which total approximately 165 miles, were organised by the Guyana Cycling Federation in partnership with the National Sports Commission.
