Although only 14 yrs old Assim has been racing with the elite riders for the past year, his mentor and coach National cycling champion Reggie Douglas commented “Assim has been working for this win all year, and he rode a great race, I congratulate him 100%”

The course for the event began on Hunkins drive went up to turn around at 4  seasons and then back through town to complete one lap, In the 6 lap elite race (30kms) Assim took 1st, Alex Isles 2nd and Reggie 3rd, the junior riders were required to do 3 laps (15kms) and it was a clean sweep for the Queen City Cycle Club with Donique in 1st, Zavan Butler 2nd and Dorez Daniel 3rd, well done young men!!
