In the days leading up to his presentation, Dhers announced on Twitter that, “as is customary,” he would wear a helmet with the name of Venezuela on it and that he hoped they would not cover it up, as they did at the Olympics.
Already this Sunday, October 9, the Venezuelan is in Santiago de Chile, where he will ride a bicycle throughout the city and later he will do a BMX Freestyle exhibition.
“They can come with any type of bicycle,” he made the invitation through his social networks, through which several people have also sent him their congratulations for his participation and victory in the regional sports competition.
Venezuela, after adding this new medal, accumulates 18 silver medals, 14 gold and 30 bronze, in different categories and disciplines. So far, the country remains in fifth place in the medal table of the continental sports event.
