The event poster lists Rogelio de Guzman among its Marlboro Tour standouts, with Jerry Lumba, Julio Carbungco and Roel Tan.
He is an Angeles City rider. In March 2024 The Voice Newsweekly named him among the professional cyclists honored at the Mayor Pogi Lazatin Bikefest. The paper wrote that the honorees had “at one time or another joined professional cycling tournaments such as the Marlboro Tour”.
The record we can cite stops there. It does not give the years he raced, his teams or his results.
He should not be confused with Edmundo De Guzman of Pangasinan, who won the Tour of Luzon in 1962.
The Marlboro Tour was the national tour of the 1980s and 1990s. Philip Morris sponsored the race from 1979 to 1998, and the last edition was the Marlboro Centennial Tour of 1998, won by Warren Davadilla. Our short history of the Philippine tours lists every champion.
