A total of 29 juniors contested in the 92 km race with four not finishing, and Aruba’s Jonathan Croes placing second during last weekend’s Caribbean Junior Cycling championships in Suriname.

Coming against the odds with the Caribbean’s most feared cyclist at this level, Michael Anthony already being hounded down by the opposition, Ambrose overcame some uncertainty at the finish line to take the bronze medal in the junior category which was won by Trinidad and Tobago’s Akil Campbell who also won the Time Trials the day before.

Campbell’s winning time in the 92 km contest was Two Hours 20 minutes 43.933 Seconds; Croes was timed at 2:20:58.040 and Ambrose 2:21:24.391.
