CYCLING NEWS GOT PICTURES? If you have pictures from the Junior Caribbean Cycling Championship road race or time trial then please let us know as we'd like to assemble as many as possible and then post them online. Drop us a note at newsletter@bermudabicycle.org BUTTERFIELD TO SPONSOR BERMUDA GRAND PRIX
The website (www.bermudagrandprix.com) for the Butterfield Bermuda Grand Prix has had a update, thanks to Colin Murdoch, and now reflects the new sponsor and dates. The format will be the same as 2008 with 3 races over 2 days and with plenty of prizes. We are working on the registration process and hope to be able to use the local services of www.raceday.bm which is run by Stephen DeSilva. We should have this sorted out in the next two weeks. There has been quite a bit of interest in the event expressed by overseas riders, some of whom may be looking for generous families to house them during their stay. We not asking right now but you might want to give it some thought...... |
