Guyanese Mark Lewis led four of his countrymen into the top six at the end of the third stage of the ‘Ride for Life’ five-stage cycle race yesterday.
Lewis, from Linden, won the 35-mile event in a time of 58 minutes and 58 seconds.

The local riders could have made a clean sweep of the top six positions if Danish Michael Larsen of the California-based Team Exustar had not edged out Leer Nunes for fifth place.
