The winners will receive at least N800,000, as the Lagos State Monthly Crit cycling event will be held on April 19.

The competition will be held at Dolphin Estate in the Ikoyi area of Lagos.

The event, organised by FXTM Nigeria, a financing investment firm, cyclists will go head-to-head across three exhilarating categories: professional, junior, and veteran.

The tourney began at 6:30 am, with registration before the race starts by 7 am.

Champions of each of the categories will go home with N800,000.

The event would provide a suitable ambience for cycling enthusiasts — a racer or a spectator —  with refreshments, music, and the perfect opportunity to mingle.

Kelechi Ehibudu, the country representative of FXTM, said the event shows the firm’s “commitment to promoting fitness, well-being, and community engagement”.

“At FXTM, we believe in unlocking potential and empowering individuals with ‘the freedom to succeed.’ Cycling, as a sport, perfectly captures this value – the freedom to ride, to push boundaries, and to achieve greatness. This event is part of FXTM’s global commitment to promoting fitness, well-being, and community engagement,” Ehibudu said.

“We’re thrilled to bring this spirited race to Lagos. Cycling is not just a sport – it’s a celebration of determination, endurance, and the unyielding drive to succeed. It perfectly resonates with our mission to empower people to achieve their goals, both in trading and in life.”
