It was the 13th, and with James Jackson being perhaps the unluckiest cyclist in England, something had to happen.....and happen it did!
James raced the Lea Valley Road Race on Sunday and despite missing the break he did what he does best, getting his head down and driving the bunch in pursuit. Turning around after after a long turn at the front, he found himself alone (that must have been a hell of a long pull James!) and decided to keep going. After a whole lap on his own, he was joined by two more and they worked well until James punctured. No neutral service meant James' race was over but, just to compound his bad luck, he found he was at the most remote part of the course and had to walk to the nearest marshall!
James' run of bad luck has got to change soon and then we'll be back to reaping the rewards of his talented riding.
