The final point scoring round of the 2008 Lincs League was held at Ashby de la Launde. A warm sunny evening greeted a much depleted Velosport GCM Landscapes team. With only Eddy, Mark and Stu riding hanging onto the league overall was never going to be an easy task! Ben was holding a 12 point lead going into the race, but he was busy in Holland riding for the British Cycling Talent Team. Meanwhile the race was under way and as the whole field came together for the finish it was Jim Coleman who crossed the line in 4th place to steal the 2008 Lincs League title by 1 point from Ben!
Not an ideal way to finish the year, but I guess 2nd place isn't bad?
Over the 2008 season Velosport GCM Landscape riders won 4 of the 9 rounds, got a 2nd and a 3rd and numerous other top 10 placings.
Lets see what 2009 holds for the team!
