The Dans go top ten at Mallory Park.

The 1st May saw the first High 5 Mallory Park Circuit Race of the Summer, and the PCA-Ciclos Uno-Isaac RT's Loughborough contingent were representing the team, with Dan Patten and Daniel Kogan keen to test their form before the ECCA Senior Championships.

With the race supported by one of their sponsors, Pearl Izumi were intent on a good showing in the race and they were on the offensive from the start to try and split the race. Dan Patten and Daniel Kogan worked hard, taking long turns on the front
to pull the breaks back and keep things together, but with riders not prepared to help out, a break of four succeeded and managed to pull out a good gap on the bunch.

The pressure on the front of the chasing pack meant that the race split into three groups with Dan Patten and Daniel Kogan in the chase group, but there was no consistency within the group to pull back the leaders, with Pearl Izumi riders disrupting the chase to allow their team mates to stay away.

With the leading group still were hanging out at about 80 seconds and with a lap to go, Dan Patten put in another attack going up the drag for the bell and managed to pull out a gap. Looking around to see a Pearl Izumi rider on the front trying to pull him back in, Dan put his head down and stayed away to take 5th place, with Daniel Kogan riding well for 9th. Good team riding kept the lead group away and Jeroen Janssen (Pearl Izumi) took the win from his team mate Stephen Adams.
