Ramsay tops Elevation Cycling Club meet

The highly anticipated clash between national senior champion Jerome Forrest and archrival Barenton Bailey failed to materialise at the Elevation Cycling Club Development Race meet at the Portmore Mall roundabout on Sunday.

Forrest fell from his bike, while Bailey failed to match the pace set by Andrew Ramsay, who won the Elite 1-2 category, the day's feature.

Ramsay finished ahead of Shaquille Sinclair, while Bradley McFarlane was third.

In the Elited 3-5 category, which consists of recreational riders, Jason King topped the field, staving off challenges from Raghini Stephenson, who finished second, and third-placed Damion Needham.

National junior champion Jaequan Dixon, who recently recovered from the flu, had to settle for third in the junior category won by clubmate Peter Robinson, who crossed the finish line ahead of Damaine Douglas.

Robinson and Dixon registered the only podium finish for Old Harbour-based Elevation Cycling Club.

In the women's category, consisting of only two competitors, Melaika Russell beat Jardanio James to the tape in a competitive duel.

Adrian Clarke secured the Masters' title as he got the better of Donald Hall and Mark Henry.

The Super Masters was won by Ashek Hall, who held off the challenges of Kirkland Howell and Marington Hall.
