SINGAPORE — The Singapore Cycling Federation (SCF) has pledged to improve its processes after apologising for the second postponement of a major cycling event, leaving a number of affected participants angry.
SCF general manager Mahipal Singh told TODAY on Tuesday that it is planning a town hall event to discuss 2024 events and seek feedback from affiliate cycling clubs as the postponement"is as painful and demoralising for us as it is for the riders".
The race had previously been postponed from its original date of June 18 to June 25 owing to construction work at the race’s intended location. However, upon the second postponement of the race, Mr Lim would no longer be able to participate due to prior family commitments. An experienced cyclist, Dr Ng won the domestic championship for the men master category in the OCBC Cycle National Championships 2022 Road individual time trial and had been training for this year’s individual time trial for roughly three months.
Speaking to TODAY, SCF's Mr Singh said that he had personally apologised to many of the cycling club leaders in conjunction with the announcement.
