GCF backs Joseph’s world medal bid in London

By
A world championship medal is the hope surrounding James ‘Joelyn’ Joseph’s next international assignment, with the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) throwing its support behind the veteran ahead of the 2026 UCI Masters Track World Championships. The federation has confirmed that Joseph will represent Guyana in London, United Kingdom, from October 5–11. As he completes his final preparations, the GCF says it is confident he can compete strongly and return with a medal. For Joseph, the championships offer another opportunity to fly the Golden Arrowhead on the world stage after years of representing the country in cycling. Announcing his participation, the federation highlighted the determination, consistency and enthusiasm that have shaped his involvement in the sport. It said those qualities had helped him earn the respect of cycling supporters both locally and internationally. A representative of the GCF described Joseph as an example of Guyanese perseverance, adding that the executive board and racing fans were fully behind his campaign. The federation also extended its best wishes on behalf of the local cycling fraternity, which it said would be watching his progress in London with considerable interest and excitement.
