Unfortunately for Freeport Bailou’s size, power and experience proved to much for a 25 minute spell in the second half before Freeport came back with 3 quick tries to make the score very admirable.   Great game by the Freeport youngsters and it all looks good for the furture if the guys keep learning and improving. Special thanks to Peter Beirne for the work he’s done this season with the guys and everyone can be proud of the season overall.

19 Cyclists start out

Some more finishers

FREEPORT, Grand Bahama – Nineteen intrepid, if not slightly bleary-eyed, cyclists marked the start of daylight savings time by gathering early at Taino Beach on Sunday, March 13th, for the annual 50 mile bike ride to raise funds for travel expenses and uniforms for junior rugby players on Grand Bahama.

Road bikes, mountain bikes, triathlon bikes, and even a tricycle headed off towards Barbary Beach on this sunny and slightly cool morning.  Since the ride is not a race but a fundraiser, the pace was leisurely for most and the conversation lively.

Unfortunately mid-way through the ride a confusion over the route resulted in a tumble for one rider who was unable to complete the full course and only eighteen cyclists returned to Taino Beach for the finish around noon.  In true team spirit many of the cyclists have vowed to ride again in a few weeks so the injured rider can complete her 50 miles.
