Birkirkara St Joseph Sports Club, in collaboration with the Malta Cycling Federation (MCF), will organise a 20-kilometre individual time trial on Sunday.

This event will be held along the Salina-Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq Coast Road, which will be closed for traffic between 7.15 a.m. and 9.15 a.m.

Sunday's event is the second race on the MCF 2009 calendar following the successful individual time trial held earlier this month.

The top local riders are expected to participate, with Etienne Bonello, of the Greens Cycling Team, the clear favourite to make it two wins in as many races.

In the women's race, Marika Micallef, of Birkirkara SJ, is the leading contender for victory although competition in this category should get tougher as the season progresses.

The Birkirkara SJ time trial is sponsored by Starbene of Mosta.
