Andy Ashurst!
Far too many results to mention but he has been consistently bothering the top end of the results boards in the Lakes and Lancs SPOCO and SPOCO NW events of late, even picking up the V50 wins at the Circuit of Ingleborough and the Teesdale Hilly TT!
The latest league standings have him at 4th overall in the Lakes and Lancs league (2nd V50), and 6th V50 in the Spoco NW league.
Awesome work Andy!
April 2016 - Rider of the MonthFor a raft of incredible early season TT performances, including a sub 21 over on the 10 course in Hull and sub 2 hours in his first ever 50! There was also the small matter of besting a certain Andre Greipel on a meaty Mallorcan strava segment whilst juggling a guinea pig and a chinchilla with one hand.
It's
Gavin McCloskey-Lambert!
