Message from the President of the PSL Cycling Club/Chairman of the
PSL Fire On Wheels Organizing Committee
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, the Board of Directors, Executive and membership of
the PSL Cycling Club, I warmly welcome you all to PSL Fire On Wheels 2018 UCI sanctioned Class
II Sanctioned Event. This means that cyclists from the world over are here to give of their best
to earn points to qualify for the Japan 2020 Olympics. The PSL Cycling Club presents an exciting
programme at the National Cycling Centre in Balmain, Couva.
To all the volunteers, partners, members of the organizing committee, the Union Cycliste
Internationale, the Trinidad and Tobago Cycling Federation, and the Trinidad and Tobago
Olympic Committee, I wish to convey my sincerest thanks for your involvement and support,
without which the PSL Fire On Wheels would not be possible.
The decision to host this meet came in an effort to add value to the rich legacy of cycling in our
twin-island nation. This world-class venue deserves as much quality cycling as possible. Be
prepared for just that over the next two days.
As a representative of the corporate sector, and as main sponsor for the event, Perfection
Services Limited (PSL) is proud of its involvement in this all important process of Olympic
qualification, providing an opportunity for athletes to represent their country at the highest
level. I also take this opportunity to challenge other members of corporate T&T to support this
sport in ways as tangible as this. Significant contributions from the private sector is paramount
if sport is to move forward in any nation; Trinidad and Tobago is no exception.
Again I thank all my corporate partners for their contributions. I wish all the cyclists and officials
a safe, successful, yet fun-filled event. To the spectators and visitors, I know this experience will
surely encourage you to return next year as we commit to be a continuous fixture on the
annual cycling calendar.
Best wishes for a successful event and congratulations to all who made this possible.

6Anti-Doping Controls
A certain amount of controls will be conducted under the 2015 Anti-doping Rules of the
UCI and CADF procedures and instructions. Anti-Doping Controls will be performed on
the Ground Floor of the Main Stands. The location of such will be clearly identified.
Riders selected for anti-doping will be identified on a list by their race number or their
ranking. If applicable, the list will be posted at the finish line and at the entrance of the
doping control station immediately after the race.
The rider shall proceed immediately to the doping control station. The absence of a
chaperon shall not excuse the rider for not reporting in time to the doping control
station. If the award ceremony takes place immediately after the event, a rider needing
to go to the award ceremony will be escorted first to the award ceremony area, then to
the press conference and finally to the doping control station.
Each rider to be tested must present himself at the doping control station as soon as
possible and at the latest within 30 (thirty) minutes of finishing the race. If a rider takes
part in an official ceremony or attends a press conference, the deadline shall be 30
(thirty) minutes of the end of the ceremony or of the moment that his presence is no
longer required at the press conference, whichever is the latest.
Riders must report to the doping control station with their current license; but if it has
no photograph, another I.D. with a photo must be presented. Riders may be
accompanied by a person of his choice and an interpreter.
Even if there are chaperons present, ultimately IT IS THE RIDER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO
CHECK IF THEY HAVE BEEN SELECTED FOR ANTI-DOPING CONTROLS. If the rider does
not attend the test, a violation of the UCI Anti-Doping Rules will be noticed and the rider
could be sanctioned in accordance with these rules.
