Tour Series: Brooklands

Canyon dhb and Brother UK – Tifosi took the men’s and women’s Tour Series titles as the 2019 Series reached its climax at the historic Brooklands venue; Local boy Rory Townsend and Anna Henderson were the individual winners

Tour Series: Brooklands

As the Canyon dhb p/b Bloor Homes team made history by becoming the first team in a decade of the Tour Series to retain their overall title, there was an extra fairytale to the finish, with local rider Rory Towsend taking his first ever individual victory, just a couple of miles from his family home in Addlestone.

Townsend out sprinted Chris Latham (Vitus Pro Cycling p/b Brother UK) and Jacob Hennessy (Canyon dhb p/b Bloor Homes) as the trio came to the line together after a fast paced race, that had seen the champions in waiting attacking from the flag. That pace, around a technical 1.5 kilometre circuit on the former Brooklands airfield, saw Canyon dhb p/b Bloor Homes immediately putting title rivals Madison Genesis into trouble with only Tom Moses and Jon Mould from the latter able to hang with the pace.

With Madison Genesis finishing fourth on the night, Canyon dhb p/b Bloor Homes finished with a fourth point advantage, flattering what had been a tightly fought contest from Round One in Redditch throughout. Vitus Pro Cycling p/b Brother UK took third overall despite a silly final round penalty of two points, just ahead of fellow UCI Continental team Ribble Pro Cycling.

Women’s Race
In the earlier women’s race the pace had been similarly high, with British Circuit Race Champion Anna Henderson (Brother UK/Tifosi) claiming her second win of the seven race Series, beating Campinense Velo Performance rider Elizabeth Bennett after the two riders broke away.

Team Breeze, reduced to three riders pre-race after a training crash on Friday, put up a valiant effort to defend their title, winning on the night but that ultimately that not being enough to overturn Brother UK – Tifosi p/b OnForm, for whom 2019 was their first overall success in the Tour Series.

Both the riders entering the final round in the Eisberg Points Jerseys retained their prizes, with Team Breeze’s Jess Roberts comfortably winner the women’s crown from Jo Tindley (Campinense Velo Performance).

Nine years on from having won the Eisberg Points Jersey in the Tour Series, Steve Lampier once again won the title, now riding for the Saint Piran team he co-owns, who were making their Series debuts in 2019. The Cornish team also took home the trophy for top non-UCI team, having finished the Series in fifth overall.
