Win number two for Jackson!

James Jackson won his second race of the year in the Eastway Supporters League at Dunton on Thursday 31st May after initiating the break of the race and then outsprinting his breakaway companions.

On a warm evening at Ford's test track, a good field lined up and after James' fantastic results in the previous rounds, he was definitely the man to beat, a fact that wasn't lost on him as the attacks went in from the gun. These early efforts were all dragged back by the bunch until Dean Shannon (Heron Cyclesport) attacked and got a gap. Not wanting to let him go, James bridged up to him and instantly countered him up the hill, pulling group of six away.

The group worked well together and held a gap over the chasing pack until the closing laps, when it seemed they might be caught. Sensing the danger, the break upped the ante and came into the finish still clear, with James sprinting clear, victorious again!

Results:
1.) James Jackson: PCA/Ciclos Uno
2.) Dean Shannon: Heron Cyclesport
3.) Dominic Schils: Interbike RT
4.) Marcin Dubanowski: Team Economic Energy
5.) David Farrow: Eagle RC
