Laura Cameron, Drops Cycling Team, won her first Team Series race in a trouble free event which was staged for the first time at the Kent Cyclopark. Very well organised by Alan Denman in what must be the best cycle race circuit in the country this was the penultimate event in this season long series.

As is usual for this course blustery wind kept tugging at the riders although in the first lap Charlotte Colclough tried to get away but was brought back by Army Cycle Race Team.

It was noticeable that the Army team and Les Filles tried to keep the race together and were mostly on the front each lap. It was Nicole Oh of Les Filles who attacked with an hours racing covered but again it was not to stick. With 3 laps to the finish Jayne Paine, Les Filles tried to get a gap but the Army were not going to allow that to happen so she was caught.

One lap to go with the main bunch waiting for the sprint Phoebe Martin, Team 22 flew out of the bunch but with the speed high she was again caught.

With the mass sprint inevitable Sophie Coleman managed to get ahead of Sian Botteley, Starley Racing.

Happy winner Sophie said” it was very windy today but it was a good race, There was a big presence from the Army and Les Filles and I did not want to expend too much knowing I was completely outnumbered but I was not alone in that as there we other teams”

“With about 5 laps to go I knew it was going to be a bunch sprint so I got myself on some good wheels which keep the pace high from the bottom of the hill and then I was able to click the gears up and hope no one came past me . Real pleased to have finally won a Team Series race”  … continued after advert
