After a race long break, winner in a tight sprint between three very quick bike riders was Jon Mould (UK Youth) from Mike Northey and Felix English.

There was a good field racing in Beverley although teams like Madison Genesis were missed and other top riders who failed to get a ride.

Mike Northey stretches the break out during the early stages with Raleigh’s Sam Witmitz doing his best to get across but couldn’t bridge the gap and that meant a long hard race for Raleigh on the front of the chasers.

Team Raleigh held the gap at 30 seconds or so for most of the race, getting it down to 15 seconds at one stage before the finish got messy and the break opened the gap up again.

Jon Mould leads the break from Adam Duggleby, Felix English and Kristian House who was the last to get across with a solo effort. On the right is Mike Northey.

Towards the end into the last five laps, Mike Northey piles on the pressure and Kristian House is gapped and Jon Mould had to scramble across the gap before it got to big.

 The finish of the support race won by Graham Morgan

Winner Jon Mould (UK Youth) from Wales, a former GB Academy rider who was with An Post last year, he explained “it was really smooth out there and we all did equal turns which is the best way to do it. We all had our own little section on the course and kept the speed high. We all committed to the move towards the end when the gap came down with Raleigh chasing behind.”

“Early on, I attacked down the right hand side and Felix, Duggleby and Mike came with us. Then Kristian jumped across and then Adam got distanced about twenty minutes in. There was no messing around in the break and that’s the only reason we stayed away.”

Asked if it was a worry when Kristian joined them, Jon replied, “A little bit. I thought about it with there being two Rapha but they were both working so I was wary of them but it turned out alright. Kristian swung off at the end leaving a gap for me to chase but I think Felix was waiting for Kristian but then when Kristian was out, Felix started riding again.”

“On the last lap, there was a bit of messing about. We came through the cobbles (start/finish straight), turned right, and I swung off and then Felix was on the front. Mike was on my wheel, and I let a gap open to Felix to get a run at him and then he committed out of the last tight right hander and I rushed the gap.”

“I knew I had to get to the cobbles first and I did and went all the way then.”

The win was his second major crit after winning the Tour Series at Colchester earlier this year. “I had bit of a bad year last year and really wanted to come back and have a good year this season and with a team of twelve riders where we all get on, are great mates and racing really hard and well together, it’s been awesome.”
