#BCA’s president and race organiser said they were pleased with the turnout for the event, despite the fact that they had to deal with some delays in closing out a long season.

#“We had to reschedule and postpone some events because of the weather, COVID-19 protocols and the likes,” he said. “But we continue to build on our programmes here in New Providence. “We are looking at starting a BMX and mountain bike season during the month of January and February so that we can offer another aspect of cycling here in New Providence because we find that the space on the road is getting smaller and smaller so some traffic to contend with.”

#On behalf of the NPCA, Musgrove congratulated all of the cyclists for making the event a success. He noted that the association will reintroduce the mountain bike and BMX obstacle course race in about two weeks before they end the year with their road race.
