Lina, VP ng Asean cycling

-
Nahalal na vice-president ng Asean Cycling Association si PhilCycling president Bert Lina sa organization’s congress at elections noong Linggo sa Traders Hotel sa Roxas Boulevard.

Si Lina, dating commissioner ng Bureau of Customs, at nahirang ding chairman ng ACA’s mountain bike and Solidarity committees.

Muling nahalal si Malaysian Haji Abu Samah Wahab na pangulo ACA, sa pagtitipon na dinaluhan ng mga kinatawan ng national federation mula sa 11 bansang kasapi.

Samantala, nagpahayag naman si Lina ng kasiyahan sa naging performance ng national cyclists sa katatapos na 23rd Southeast Asian Games. Nagwagi ang bansa ng dalawang gintong medalya sa women’s crosscountry mula kay Marites Bitbit at men’s  4-km individual pursuit of track naman mula kay Alfie Catalan.

"I am satisfied and I congratulate the members of the entire team," ani Lina. Team Philippines also earned four silver medals and three bronzes, surpassing the one gold, two silvers and three bronzes won in Vietnam two years ago.

Gayunpaman, ipinahayag din ni Lina na kailangan ma-improve nila ang kasalukuyang programa sa cycling para makakuha ng mas maraming medalya sa susunod na SEA Games at sa Doha Asian Games sa 2006 at Olympics.

"The team could have achieved more (considering the four silver medals) and this gives us more inspiration in the federation (PhilCycling) to work even harder in the future," aniya.

Ang Team Philippines sa 23rd SEA Games ay suportado din ng   Air21 at U-Freight Phils., bukod sa suportang nakuha sa Philippine Sports Commission at Philippine SEA Games Organizing Committee.
