Ben grabs 2nd in London!

Can a LondonVelocity be far behind?

His notes:

Attached is a photo of the sprint finish from the final Hayes Circuit
Series race.
I'm on the far right and sprinted for 2nd place.

I tried a different strategy this week: after placing 6th & 7th the
last 2 weeks I decided i needed to be at the front sooner due to
twists in the course before the finish. I decided to be 1st by halfway
through the twists... as though that was the finish line. Then I would
just push as hard as I could the rest of the way. It worked... except
that the guy who won (in CSC kit in picture) had the same idea and
came to the front even sooner than I did.
