Ryan Alexander, Senior Vice-President of the Berbice Chamber of Commerce and Development Association (BCCDA), presented the Flying Ace Cycling Club (FACC) of East Berbice with 30 face masks during the past week.

The FACC has also recently benefited from the receipt of food hampers as the dreaded novel coronavirus continues to menace all sporting activities.

Led by Cycling Coach Randolph Roberts, the FACC has expressed

gratitude to those who have donated to the cause of its members in such a trying time as this; and Roberts has explained that, despite the menacing threat posed by COVID-19, cyclists have been engaging in training under his watchful eyes, in order to prepare themselves for the resumption of competition.
Coronavirus cases are mostly being found in regions other than Six (East Bce/Corentyne), but the cyclists under Roberts’ charge are taking all precautions while training in small numbers.
Young and promising cyclist Jeremiah Joseph declared that he trains on a daily basis. In a comment invited from this daily publication, Joseph said he is anxiously awaiting the return of competitive racing.
“The only thing I can do is keep my body fit, and continue to be prepared,” Joseph noted. He posited that his goal will always remain the same: to be positive in his approach.
“I want to be the best; to always ride and keep my head up and win races,” Joseph explained.
He is calling on his fellow cyclists to protect themselves while staying fit, and to equip themselves with a never-say-never attitude; and the able coach Randolph Roberts is calling on more business entities to come on board the effort to assist Flying Ace cyclists during this period of the pandemic.
