NFTO Pro Cycling&#8217;s Steele Von Hoff took the individual win.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This seemed like a great opportunity at the time, but had detrimental effect on the points tally for the evening. Because Madison Genesis has chased hard as a team to get back into the race, the other teams were less fortunate, as their men had been blown out of the race and ended the evening a lap behind.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Madison Genesis, hadn&#8217;t lost the leadership after-all. But ONE Pro Cycling had ebbed a little closer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Peterborough<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4012\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4012\" style=\"width: 842px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chrismaher.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rd9_Peterborough-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4012\" src=\"http:\/\/www.chrismaher.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rd9_Peterborough-1.jpg\" alt=\"Tour Series - Peterborough\" width=\"842\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chrismaher.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rd9_Peterborough-1.jpg 842w, https:\/\/www.chrismaher.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rd9_Peterborough-1-200x141.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 842px) 100vw, 842px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4012\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tour Series &#8211; Peterborough<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Going into the penultimate round in Peterborough, ONE Pro Cycling had closed the gap in the leadership battle to with-in one point.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The race got underway on a flat, fast 1.1Km circuit in Cathedral Square at 7.30pm.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ONE Pro Cycling&#8217;s Marcin Bialoblocki started the nights action after the two neutral laps and clipped off the front of the peloton, where he stayed, taking the first of the Chain Reaction Points that were on offer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pedal Heaven&#8217;s Alex Paton took-up the lead soon after, but didn&#8217;t get too far either.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The race settled down after that, where Team Raleigh GAC&#8217;s Morgan Kneisky took the next set of Chain Reaction Points with Jon Mould second, then former title holder Tom Stewart third.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Team Raleigh GAC then controlled the latter part of the race, with Steve Lampier gaining a hundred or so metres, as his team-mates defended Kneisky&#8217;s Points Jersey challenge sweeping up most of the points between them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As the race approached the final five laps, a seven man group formed including Track Olympic Champion Ed Clancy, who&#8217;s team had won last seasons Tour Series.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Team Raleigh GAC&#8217;s Morgan Kneisky went for a long one, covering a couple of laps before been caught by Chris Lawless and Dave McGowan. The chasers then re-formed with a lap and a half to go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pedal Heaven&#8217;s Dave McGowen broke free once more, and looked like he would go all the way to the end. But JLT Condor presented by Mavic&#8217;s Ed Clancy had other ideas and sprinted past McGowan with only fifty metres to go. Clancy claimed his second win of this series, his third in Peterborough.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NFTO&#8217;s Steel Von Hoff took second, with Madison Genesis&#8217;s Tobyn Horton third.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ONE Pro Cycling&#8217;s Marcin Bialoblocki took the bunch sprint over half a minuet down.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A considerable amount of time went by before confirmation of the Championship lead was announced.
