The Luces Broth­ers Memo­r­i­al Cy­cle Clas­sic is set to un­fold on March 20 at the his­toric Ian Ather­ly Cy­cle Track, Skin­ner Park, San Fer­nan­do, from 5 pm.

This an­nu­al event, be­ing staged by the Rigtech Son­ics Cy­cle Club, will ho­n­our Noel and Kent Luces, past na­tion­al cy­clists, se­nior Son­ics mem­bers, and club head coach­es whose lives and con­tri­bu­tions left an in­deli­ble mark on the sport. Noel passed in 2012 and Kent in 2014, and the Clas­sic stands as a liv­ing trib­ute to their lega­cy.

Since its in­cep­tion in 2013, and with the ex­cep­tion of two years dur­ing the pan­dem­ic, the Luces Broth­ers Memo­r­i­al Cy­cle Clas­sic has evolved in­to one of the most an­tic­i­pat­ed fix­tures on the na­tion­al cy­cling cal­en­dar. It con­tin­ues to em­body the spir­it of com­mu­ni­ty en­gage­ment, en­cour­ag­ing youth par­tic­i­pa­tion and in­spir­ing the next gen­er­a­tion to em­brace cy­cling as a path­way to dis­ci­pline, health, and achieve­ment.

Spec­ta­tors can look for­ward to an ac­tion-packed pro­gramme fea­tur­ing keirin, team sprint, elim­i­na­tion (Dev­il Take the Hind­most) and many more thrilling events

The Clas­sic al­so serves as an of­fi­cial qual­i­fi­er for the T&T Cy­cling Fed­er­a­tion’s East­er In­ter­na­tion­al Grand Prix, en­sur­ing that fans will wit­ness the na­tion’s top elite rid­ers vy­ing for cov­et­ed spots on the na­tion­al team. Re­gion­al rid­ers cur­rent­ly train­ing in T&T will al­so com­pete, adding fur­ther ex­cite­ment and pres­tige to the evening. The Rigtech Son­ics Cy­cle Club ex­tends heart­felt grat­i­tude to its loy­al spon­sors, whose un­wa­ver­ing sup­port has sus­tained the Clas­sic year af­ter year.
