Jamaul John has been crowned the new national road race champion.
Yesterday, the Team Coco’s wheelsman denied Curtis Dey a second senior road race title while claiming his first as he out sprinted Andrew Hicks and Dey at the end of an aggressive day of racing from the city to Moblissa on the Linden Highway and back.
John who placed third in the Time-Trial last week, was one of the favourites of the 25-man starting peloton yesterday and he did not disappoint following more than four hours of racing in the 103-mile event.
John who was the leading cyclist on the local circuit last year and in 2017, finally captured the elusive title after leaving enough left in the tank to emerge winner of the annual flagship event of the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF).
