Nevis Cycle & Triathlon Club president Winston Crooke is very happy with the outcome of this bid to raise the stakes for the regional triathletes, and sees this as a good sign for the future of the sport throughout the Caribbean. Now in its fourth year and growing in popularity the Carino Nevis Triathlon will now offer a golden opportunity for regional athletes to gain further recognition and represent their nations.
