Briton John leads the pack at Fireworks 4

The usual suspect, Briton John, outclassed a field of experienced local and regional cyclists on Sunday last to claim top honours in the Kaieteur Attack Cycling Club’s Fireworks 4.

A record 49 cyclists showed up at the Kingston Seawall Bandstand on Sunday afternoon for the competition, reportedly the biggest turnout in any local race for the last decade.
After going tit for tat, exchanging the lead, in the first 24 laps of the feature race, We Stand United Cycling Club’s Briton John pipped Raiders Cycling Club’s Jadian Neaves of Trinidad and Tobago to take the top spot. While Neaves was close behind the Guyanese cycling ace for second place, his countryman Liam Trepte finished third, while Barbados’ Dominic Howard crossed the line fourth. Guyanese duo Aaron Newton and Christopher Griffith completed the race’s top six finishers, in respective order.

Over in the Masters 35-49, Trinidad and Tobago’s Adam Alexander rode away with the gold, followed by Seagun Hubbard in second and Alex Mendes in third place.
The Masters 50+ division was won by James Joseph, after which Ian Jackson and Ray Harlequin completed the event’s top three finishers.
For the Juniors, Kaieteur Attack Racing Club’s Ajani Cutting, with arms pumped in the air, crossed the line first, followed by Alex Newton and Alexander Laueng in second and third, respectively.
Continental Cycling Club’s Tyron Hamilton came away with the win in Category 4. Kwame Fortune and Andy Rajkarran crossed the line second and third, respectively.
