Podium for Hayley Edwards at the Newport Nocturne!

The team rode a fantastic race at the weekend at the Newport Nocturne! The crowds were 18,000 strong and lined the town centre circuit, rather like a Belgium Kermesse with people watching from their front gardens! The circuit had a tough uphill cobbled section following a sharp right hander, but the girls handled it brilliantly all managing to stay in the lead group. Eve and Hayley each won a prime lap and after some brilliant positioning on the final lap Hayley crossed the finish line in third! Check out her race report Hayley Edward's Blog: Podium at The Newport Nocturne!!

Eve Dixon crashed out during the sprint and was sent to hospital with head injuries, but is out and well (just with a bit of bruising). 

Well done to all of you for a brilliant race, hopefully the Nocturne will sport another womens race next time?
