Finsbury Park RR Photos and resultsBy NS, 11-Oct-2011
Thanks to all the competitors in the 2011 Finsbury Park Road Race on 9th October, this was a typically tough event, run on the Whitwell course for the first time (previously we have used the Steeple/Maldon course). Our neutral service car changed something like 12 wheels and watched several riders fight their way back to the bunch.

Adam Cotterell wins, these pictures were all taken on the steepest part of the short hill 200m before the finish, it was steeper than it looks on film ;)
Flavio Zappi:
Paul Dring, in third position here, was unfortunately caught by the rabid pack behind, finishing 7th
