HARROGATE, England (Reuters) - It is a long way from the palm-fringed beaches of Anguilla to rainy Yorkshire and Hasani Hennis must have felt he was riding on a different planet when he made cycling history for the tiny Caribbean island this week.

Hennis, 22, became the first Anguillan rider to compete in the UCI World Road Championships when he braved atrocious weather in northern England to complete the Under 23 men's time trial.
