KIGALI, Rwanda, September 26, 2025 — Grenada’s Red Walters, a UK-based professional cyclist and Pan-American Continental Championships silver medallist, will line up among the world’s best on Sunday when he competes in the Men’s Elite Road Race at the 2025 UCI Road Cycling World Championships in Kigali.
Walters, Grenada’s only professional cyclist, continues to carry the nation’s flag on the global stage. He will join two other Caribbean riders — Briton John of Guyana and Jyven Gonzalez of Belize — in the gruelling 267.5-kilometre (166-mile) event, which starts at 3:45 a.m. Eastern Time and features a peloton of 164 riders.
The 26-year-old Grenadian already tested the course in last Sunday’s Men’s Elite Individual Time Trial,
finishing 32nd with a time of 59 minutes, 52.98 seconds in a field of 54 competitors. John placed 39th
in 1:05:32.40, while Gonzalez focused his preparations on Sunday’s road race.
