-confident of taking overall race today

Guyanese cyclist Andre “Padlock” Green recorded a win on Friday in the Tour of Tobago Division Two. The Berbician stopped the clock in one hour 17 minutes and 27 seconds in the five lap/division two event. Green finished ahead of Josias Valsquez (Team Pharmaco/Venezuela) who clocked in at one hour 17 minutes and 27.91 seconds.

Kirsten George came third in that race. After the race, Green said he used his previous experience in Trinidad and Tobago, which aided him to win the race.
“I had a good approach to the race because of past experience, because I had an early break where I relaxed and waited for the finish. From the second lap, I tried to create the break, but I was caught up. On the third lap,the guys joined me, and that was the break and that set me up for the finish,” Green said.
He is also expected to ride today, Saturday October 15, and he is confident of taking the overall race. He noted that creating the early break will aided him in winning the sprint.
The other Guyanese in the Tour of Tobago is Jamual John, who is expected to put up a good showing in the upcoming days.
