German tyre manufacturer 'Continental' has supplied its ground breaking Attack and Force front and rear specific tyres to the Velosport GCM Landscapes cycle team for the 2008 season. Using 'Black Chilli' technology which has been developed by Continental's engineers they are able to produce tyres that last longer, give improved grip and roll faster.

Isle of Man Youth Tour
After 3 days of racing in the Isle of Man youth tour Ben Dunn claimed a fantastic 3rd overall in the 'Boys A' category.
On day 1 he was 4th in the prologue, day 2 brought Ben a 6th and on the 3rd and final day of racing a 10th was all he needed to bring home 3rd overall in his category.
Once again a great result for Ben!

Roeselare Kermesse, Belgium
After the Wim Hendriks Trofee came the Roeselare Kermesse in Belgium, held the following day it was straight down to racing for Ben Dunn and his GB Talent Teammates. This time 8 laps of a 7.5km circuit being the route around Roeselare and once again the GB Olympic Development Team was busy stamping its name all over the race along with a little help from Ben and his GB Talent Team! Yesterdays 1st and 2nd placed riders switched podium places for this race with Sam Harrison winning and Daniel McLay coming 2nd. Ben made it one better than the previous day coming in 5th, once again relishing the experience of riding on the continent!
Wim Hendriks Trofee, Belgium
Once again it was off to Belgium for Ben Dunn in April as he was once again selected for the GB Talent Team's entry into the Wim Hendriks Trofee. A warm sunny day greeted the team, most unusual in Belgium for the time of year, as the 70km race got underway. After many moves during the race it was British Olympic Development Rider Daniel McLay who eventually got away to win the race with teammate Sam Harrison 2nd, Ben was best placed GB Talent Team rider in 6th clearly showing the Belgians that British Cycling is coming on in leaps and bounds! Well done to Ben for a great effort from his teammates at Velosport GCM!
Lincs League Round 2 08, Aisthorpe
Aisthorpe was the venue for Round 2 of the League and on a warm evening with a large field of riders Velosport GCM got to work to open their points account for the year! With Ben winning the championship last year he has been placed further down the field for this year, but as a result is showing great strength and maturity in positioning himself within the field of riders, as a result Ben came a creditable third place in the race! He did however have his arms raised claiming victory, someone failed to inform him and the rest of the peloton that there were 2 escapees down the road!!!!! Don't worry Ben, victory for you is just around the corner!
A spirited ride by all the team!

Lincs League Round 1 08, Long Bennington
The start of the 2008 Lincs League seems to have come around so quickly so it was off to Long Bennington, south of Newark to start Team Velosport GCM Landscape's defence of the Trophy! A cool windy night greeted the team, and a rather uneventful night for the boys was soon underway. Groups 1 & 2 managed to stay away and as a result John Stachan of Lindsey Roads CC was the eventual winner. Andy brought home the bunch for Velosport GCM out of the points!
