Merry Christmas from the Brother UK Cycling family!

A training ride on the roads of the CiCLE Classic and a three-course Christmas meal were among the highlights of Team Brother UK - OnForm's first pre-season camp.
_
The Elite Development Team rode a 60-mile loop last Saturday and a 40-mile loop broken by a festive lunch the following day. Ten-pin bowling provided a further bonding exercise.
_
“It’s important to build friendships in the team. Ultimately, you’re more likely to work for someone you get along with than someone you don’t,” said manager Mark Botteley.
_
“They all get on in any case, which is one of the nice things about the team.”
_
The squad will meet again at Witham School, its UK base, in late January before heading to Calpe on Spain’s sun-kissed Costa Blanca in February for warm weather training.
_
“The hard work lasts all winter. The next five or six weeks are important. There are no shortcuts. I told the riders, ‘It’s over to you. It’s no good waiting until Calpe,’” Mark said.
_
“They need to get in the hard miles now.”
_
The team, pictured last May, enjoyed a successful 2024, finishing seventh in the National Road Series and fourth overall in the British Women’s Team Cup, despite contesting both competitions with a squad containing several junior riders.

Throwback to blue skies and Spring sunshine as the domestic peloton returned to Saltburn-by-the-Sea for April's East Cleveland Classic.
_
Racing in bright conditions eclipsing even those that had graced the National Championships the previous June, the women enjoyed their second National A race of the year while the men’s teams launched their top-tier campaigns.
_
Cat Ferguson (Shibden-Hope-Apex), who’d finished second to team-mate Imogen Wolff at the Trofeo Binda in her previous outing, resumed winning ways with a decisive attack on the final ascent of Saltburn Bank, completing her recovery from an earlier crash and bike change.
_
Tiffany Keep (DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK) was the first rider home from a Brother UK-sponsored team, marking her UK season debut with an impressive fifth place. Team-mates Robyn Clay and Morven Yeoman finished seventh and eighth respectively.
_
Rowan Baker won the Open race for Saint Piran, finishing comfortably ahead of runner-up Tim Shoreman (Wheelbase-Cabtech-Castelli) and his Saint Piran colleagues James McKay, who was third, and fourth-placed Dylan Hicks.

Throwback to the Otley Cycle Races and victory for Frankie Hall (DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK) in the opening round of this year’s National Circuit Series.
_
Frankie, who three days earlier had been the only rider from a domestic team to finish in the top 20 at the National Championships, demonstrated the breadth of her ability on a course in Otley crammed with steep climbs, rapid descents and sweeping turns.
_
She also finished second at the Dudley Grand Prix and tenth in a crash-marred Sheffield Grand Prix.
_
However, her performances proved equally valuable to DAS-Hutchinson-Brother UK's title-winning campaign in the National Road Series.
_
Victory in the Lancaster GP, third place in the Ryedale GP, ninth place in the Lincoln GP, fourteenth at the Curlew Cup and a top-20 finish at the East Cleveland Classic provided a vital points haul.
