Part 2 of the pictures from the A1 / A2 event.
More riders chasing on lap 4



The leaders on lap 5

Some good racing now as the race splits

The chasers

More groups all over the place



The remains of the bunch with about 22km to go

Last time up Boston Hill one rider is away on his own

Fraser Duncan is away with just 10km to the finish

at 26 secs down, Mark Dowling has left to others and is chasing the leader

Ryan Sherlock leads the next group of riders who are 36 seconds back

With only 10km to go, the rest don't have chance now

At 5km to go Duncan is still out front

Two riders are in pursuit

While the other are looking at each other

200M to the finish and Duncan has been caught

Five riders in the group to sprint it out

Peter Hawkins surges ahead


The next group of finishers

Then a few riders on their own

And the next group in to the finish
