Belizean Sergeant Brian Martinez was knocked down and killed in Los Angeles, USA. The unfortunate news was shared by the Cycling Federation of Belize in a statement that read “Sergeant Brian Martinez was so excited that he would finally get to ride the Holy Saturday Cross Country Classic. It was not meant to be. He was training hard in Los Angeles but on Sunday, March 17th. That dream was no more a reality. While training in the early morning he was knocked down and killed. Only a week before he sent in his registration for the event.” Brian served in the army for 20 years and he was also a licensed Clinical Health and Mental Health Therapist.
