All eyes on Griffith; Griffith eyes successful title defence

Flackback! Christopher Griffith receives his prize from the wife of the late Urban Benjamin.

The crème de la crème of Guyana’s cyclists will take to the Essequibo Coast for the third annual Urban Benjamin Memorial with riders battling in a grueling 72-mile road race today.

The Evolution cycling club-organised race, which begins from 09.00 hours will see the riders taking to the starting line in front of the Charity Primary School before heading east to the Supenaam Stelling where they will complete 37 miles and turn around to head back to the starting line in pursuit of the checkered flag.
