In the 20km event, Philip Ayesu emerged victorious while Sasu Emmanuel and Thomas Bagbire settled for the second and third positions in that order.

Speaking after the event, the third edition, the founder of Emmagee Fitness Center, Emmanuel Antwi said he was impressed with the turnout, adding that this year’s event had seen massive improvement from previous years.

He said, he was particularly impressed with the interest shown by the young people.

“The future for the sport is very bright considering how a lot of children are taking interest and participating. They would become future professionals for the country when the current ones are no more in active sport,” he stated.

Next year, he said would be better as they looked forward to making the event a national one and possibly get foreign cyclists to participate.
