The highly anticipated Friendly Rivalry Cycle Race between Pat & the Blue Angles, The Big 6 Bike Club, Greig & The Orange Tigers and DJ Sugar took place on Sunday 22nd May 2016 at the South Hill Field. Denroy Gumbs (Chickey) won the race in 31.00 minutes; his team captain Greig Hughes came in second with a time of 31.42 and third place went to the captain of the Big 6 Bike Club Serge Stevens. Marlon Martin, Eldon Hull and Julius Hughes (Bootie) finished in the fourth, fifth and six positions respectively.
It is reported that Pat Mardenbourugh and DJ Sugar are already on the road practicing.
They are vowing to come back with vengeance. But the Orange Tigers & Big 6 Bike Club say no way, not when they are on the road. We will see what happens when the teams meet again. It should be another interesting showdown.
A Primary School Cycle race also took place when Jaquin Brown, Justin Riley, Amirah Brown and Carden Fleming held the top positions.
