Coronavirus postpones Belmopan Cycling Classic; Westrac hosts race today

By Aaron Humes: Novel coronavirus continues to impact Belize’s sporting calendar.

The famous tune up for the Holy Saturday Cross Country Cycling Classic, the Belmopan Cycling Classic scheduled for today Sunday has been postponed by request of main sponsor the Belmopan City Council.

There has been no word on the Cross Country, which has only been canceled once since it started in 1928.

However, Westrac Limited is holding a non-sanctioned race on the George Price Highway this morning.

The race goes to and from their Belmopan office, turning at the Fabers Road junction for elite males and Rockville for women and juniors.

Prizes range from $500 first place for elite males and $150 for females.

We’ll have updates later as the race is at the halfway point. Check the Cycling Federation of Belize Facebook page to see live video of the race.
