Clean sweep for Hannah Barnes in Colchester
Solo victory for MG Maxifuel rider puts her into Series lead post Round Two

Hannah Barnes took a dominant solo victory in Colchester, heading home MG Maxifuel teammate Karla Boddy for a one-two, helping her into the Series lead.

Barnes went clear at the night’s opening sprint and was never again headed, sweeping into the lead of the Johnson Health Tech Grand Prix Series and taking the race win and combativity award, whilst also holding on to the sprints competition lead.

Behind Barnes a select chase group formed, with Boddy leading them home ahead of MuleBar Girl – Sigma Sport duo Louise Mahe and Round One winner Natalie Creswick.

The lead ebbed backwards and forwards but the group couldn’t pull back Barnes, despite a number of big efforts, in particular from Champion System’s Sarah Byrne.

Victory leaves Barnes two points ahead of Creswick in the individual standings and a six point lead over Mahe in the sprint standings.
