The OCBC Cycle Singapore Team Time Trial Championship showed once again last Sunday why it is probably the premier event on the local road racing calendar as over 130 teams of riders flocked to the Tanah Merah Coastal Road circuit for their annual dose of collective suffering.
The Quad racing division alone attracted 76 teams across seven different categories, which equates to 304 riders, a superb number for a local cycling race. The Duo division attracted a further 60 teams, with many of the competitors in that set of races doubling up after a short rest from their Quad exploits … gluttons for punishment! While the Tanah Merah Coastal Road circuit isn’t the most exciting course in the world, it has loads of space for the officials, riders and supporters to set up their tents alongside the start/finish stretch, a big factor in the carnival atmosphere that prevailed on Sunday.
