Oakley Team Series Race

Jo, Bex, Adel, Nicci and Ellie raced at Oakley Womens Team Series race today.  This is a flat course of 6laps over 50miles.  Jo managed to win the second prime and Adel was 3rd in the first one.  The girls rode an aggressive race, putting in many atacks, but on a flat course like this, nothing was getting away.  A very wet night before the race meant that the race suface wasn't ideal, leading to many punctures, claiming both Nicci and Ellie.  In the bunch for the finish we had Jo, Adel and Bex and they positioned themselves brilliantly to claim 4th, 6th and 9th respectively.  The team finished 2nd overall, without losing 2 of our riders to punctures we would have secured the win for sure.
