Results: Litherland Circuit League

Results from round 16 of the Litherland Circuit League at Litherland Sports Park on Merseyside on the 20th July

Steve Abbott of team wallis_CHH made it five wins for the season at the Litherland Criterium series on Wednesday evening. A committed ride from Abbott has edged him closer to 1st status. Joined by team mates Sean Hughes, Martin Wallis and Grant Ormerod, wallis_CHH put on a controlled attacking display. However it was Hughes that went on the attack first, going away from the very gun. He was then joined by Abbott and made a trio with Liam Brennan, but Hughes dropped back to the peloton.

They then worked together to gain a sizeable advantage, with wallis_CHH controlling the front of the peloton. Such was the gap that they almost lapped the field and it was then a case positioning for the final sprint. This was easily taken by Abbott with Hughes coming fifth.
