Crawford ‘Trucking Enterprise’ recognises top junior cyclist Washington
Guyana’s top junior cyclist Mario Washington has been recognised for his consistency by Franco Crawford of ‘Crawford Trucking Enterprise’ and Syril Hunts, brother of former national cyclist Nevelle Hunts of USA-based Core Cycling team.
In a blooming three-year career, the 17-year-old began his journey at Flying Ace Cycling Club of New Amsterdam as a juvenile. He also represented Guyana at the Caribbean Junior Championships, and his three-year journey has since been an outstanding one.

Flying Ace rider Washington has shown dominance in the 2021 cycling season, chalking up more than seven wins, with his most recent being the ‘Gold’ race in Essequibo last month. He also copped silver in the National Championships.
In addition to his exploits in cycling, the disciplined Washington copped ten subjects at the Caribbean Secondary Education Examinations while attending the Line Path Secondary School. He copped two grade ones, three grade twos and five grade threes.
Mario Washington has expressed gratitude to Franco Crawford, who was also a national cyclist and is the nephew of the late Marcel Crawford, a former national cycling champion; the Hunts, of Core Cycling, his parents, and his long-time coach Randolph Roberts.
