Linc's R.R. League Race 2










Team VeloSport GCM claimed it's first victory of the season last night in Round 2 of the Linc's R.R. at Aisthorpe in Lincolnshire. Ben Dunn showed a massive improvement on his fifth place finish in Round 1 to score the team's first ever win in only it's second full event. What made the win even more incredible was that he solo'd it after the first lap! The result was slightly marred by a crash on the last lap that took out VeloSport GCM hardman Eddie Loftus who was in line for a top 5 finish at that point. Following a hospital visit he has been advised to rest from racing this weekend but as is usual with Ed there was no moaning and he still enjoyed his post-race Stella!

The Velo GCM train ...

First result and its a good one!

15 year old Ben Dunn brought home a great first result for Team VeloSport GCM on April 12th when he broke the course record for a juvenile rider in Barton Wheelers Deepdale Challenge 10.5 mile TT. Ben's time was an amazing 27min 17sec (previous course record 27min 32sec) and landed him a 5th place overall. Go Ben!

Sunny & warm April!
