This Sunday – Beaumont Trophy RR

After six weeks on the road for the Pearl Izumi Tour Series where the enemy of the riders was the travel, the best of the British based riders head to Northumberland for the long running Beaumont Trophy Road Race, part of the Virgin Money Cyclone cycling festival in Newcastle.

Ironically, its last years winner’s brother Russell Downing (above) that wears number 1 with Dean not down to ride although that may change as may many of the teams line ups. One rider who I expect will be on the line will the Jersey Road Road Race winner Adam Blythe who didn’t need his sprint to win after going solo in a very strong show of strength.

The NFTO line up also boasts other possible winners such as Jon Mould but the race includes many other possible winners and the Madison Genesis line up who won last year with Dean Downing, sees the return to British racing of Peter Hawkins, Scott Davies and Alex Peters (below). They will be joined by Tom Scully, Andy Tennant, Ian Bibby, Tom Stewart and Liam Holohan in a very strong team.

An exciting addition to the GB line up is Tao Geoghegan Hart back from racing in the States while Raleigh also see some riders returning to action such as Ian ‘superman’ Wilkinson, Alex Blain and Mark Christian. The team’s Mathieu Boulo showed in the Tour Series what a threat he is as well so yet again we have a line up with more than one possible winner.

Rapha Condor JLT have their Tour of Korea winner Hugh Carthy back in action in Britain with others like CiCLE Classic winner Tom Moses and Chris Opie on the way back after returning to racing during the latter part of the Tour Series. If it comes to a sprint, the men in black have many options including Opie and Graham Briggs.

The other UCI team, Node 4 Giordana boasts a new name, Brad Morgan, along with Steve Lampier who was at the sharp end of the Jersey road race (2nd) and a rider never to be under estimated, Marcin Bialoblocki.

The 140 strong field has many other notable riders. Jonny Bellis, bronze medallist in the U23 World RR Champs before his crippling crash, rides for the Isle of Man while David Clarke is one of the KTM team. Dan Fleeman should find the Ryals to his liking for Metaltek-Kuota whilst the team from Cycling Ulster will be unknown to most of the favourites. Spanish team Start Trigon will again be visiting the UK.

Wheelbase Altura MGD send their strong line up to the race whilst especially pleasing is the Yorkshire Composite with father and son Jake and John Tanner on the start list. There are many other teams missing from the race which is a shame but for those looking for a British Champs warm up, the Beaumont at 117 miles is a great test to see who has the endurance to go that distance.
