News – Haribo Beacon dominate Round 1 National Junior Series
Haribo Beacon’s junior squad had their first major domestic event of the year today with the Cadence Road Race over 68 miles in Wales, and impressively dominated the event filling every podium spot with a 1, 2, 3 and also taking the King of the Mountains jersey.
As the opening round of the National Junior RR Series, all the UK’s major teams and riders were attracted and months of winter preparation were to be tested.
Mark Barry [Junior Squad Directeur Sportif] laid out the teams plans ahead of the race, and as ever the intention was to ride aggressively and take the racing to the competition.
Showing maturity ahead of their years our 4 junior riders rode selflessly as a team unit, and exactly as Barry had ordered in his rider briefing. After putting the pressure on the peloton in the opening kilometres, Tom Baylis was the first to attack and quickly built up a lead of almost 2 minutes, which placed pressure on the competition.
Eventually the chasing bunch caught Baylis with a round 50km to go, and immediately James Shaw counter attacked and built a solo lead which gradually increased to almost 4 minute at its peak with Baylis, Evans and Moody controlling any efforts by the peloton to catch the solo escape.
After several attempts from the peloton to forge a chase group, Joe Evans attacked and was joined by team mate Levi Moody who rode strongly together to distance the chase group by up to 2 mins. Meanwhile Tom Bayliss, who’s exceptional riding in the early stages of the race set up his team mates, managed to stay in great position amongst the chasing peloton.
The result was then inevitable as Shaw had built a healthy lead riding the final 50km on his own and comfortably took the victory, only two weeks after winning the junior Kuurne Brussels Kuurne.
His team mates Evans and Moody later finished second and third respectively. Although, perhaps the biggest achievement of the day was Tom Bayliss who, after riding a strong team role all race, managed to place secure 5th place on the day to secure a comfortable win in both the individual and team classifications.
Mark Barry {DS} commented “Today we knew we would be a marked team after James [Shaw] showed his early season form, but we have a great team who are all prepared to ride for each other so we took the racing by the scruff of the neck from km 1”.
Team work is probably the most important component within the team both with our riders and support staff. The lads followed team orders to the letter today and it’s great to see young guys taking on board everything we have been working on over the winter. Tom Baylis took the first three KOM primes, with James picking up the remaining four.
