According to Quach Thi Kieu, Director of the provincial Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, the National Road Cycling Championship is part of the national high-performance sports system, organised annually in coordination with the Vietnam Cycling and Motor Sports Federation.

The highlight of this year’s championship was the 100km women’s individual and team mass start race on the morning of October 19 and the 160km men’s individual and team mass start race on October 20, which marked the final events of the championship. 

The championship thrilled audiences with intense and exciting competition. Spectacular bursts of speed, determined chases, and unexpected sprints to the finish all contributed to a vibrant atmosphere for the competition. 

An Giang's cycling team continued to secure the first place with six gold, two silver, and three bronze medals. Ho Chi Minh City came second with five gold, five silver, and two bronze medals, followed by Binh Duong with two gold, two silver, and four bronze medals.
