The Team did extremely well in South Africa 
And it looks like they have a real gem in Townshend  |

@Ian Butler and Jakstar22 - Thanks. New Zealand went much better than expected. Not sure we can continue to perform above expectations though!
@sutty68 @Miguel98 @Jakstar22 - Yeah, I think we did as well as we could in South Africa, given our riders' abilities and fitness. Thanks!
This one day is held in the Belgian region of Limbrug and has been running since 1998. The relatively flat parcours should suit the sprinters.
An Post and Landbouwkredit probably have the strongest teams with sprinters like Bagdonas, Traksel and Commeyne ideally suited for this terrain. Bacquest and Dowing were also rated as favourites by the pundits going into the race.
What of our own chances? The team are lacking in race fitness, so we had no great expectations going into the race, although in Briggs we certainly had a contender if he was a good day.
The race got off to a furious start with numerous riders attempting to breakaway. The bunch wouldn't let anything go though. Eventually, Raleigh's Jamie Sparling was allowed to go. No-one followed Jamie, so he was set for a long lonely day in a solo break.
Sparling ploughs a lonely furrow
His efforts were doomed from the outset and he was caught with 20km to go. The sprinters teams began to position themselves and with 9km to go Raleigh found themselves at the head of affairs with an impressive train stringing out the bunch.
Raleigh hit the front
Holohan did a superb 4km pull on the front, and then Janssen took over from 5km, still keeping Raleigh out in front. As Janssen pulled over at 3km to go, Tobyn Horton began to lead out the sprint, with Holloway in his wheel and Briggs last man. Briggs' rivals Bacquet, Silvestre, Pinto and Commeyne were all queueing up behind.
Horton opens up the sprint
Holloway took over from Horton but as they went under the 1km banner, Raleigh were beginning to get swamped. Briggs would need to pull something special out now to get the victory.
Raleigh got swamped at 1km to go
But the riders that gone past the Raleigh train began to tire. Briggs still had something left in the tank and sought to surge his way back to the front. In the meantime, Commeyne had hit the front and was looking set for victory. Was there enough road left for Briggs to catch him?
Commeyne drives for the line, Briggs directly behind him
Briggs didn't quite have enough to haul back Commeyne, but nonetheless earned a creditable second place. Kern rounded out the podium, while Holloway hung on for 8th.

Another good month for Team Raleigh. Despite lacking race fitness, the team impressed in both the Tour of South Africa and the Beverbeek Classic. In South Africa, the team delighted the sponsors by winning the KOM competition through young Brenna Townshend. The 18 year old showed he could have bright future in procyling. Briggs came close in Belgian, taking a fine second place in the Beverbeek Classic. The rider of the month though was Evan Oliphant. He took two third places on his way to 6th overall in South Africa against a strong field.
In more good news for the team, Liam Holohan agreed to a two-year extension to his contract to 2014. Holohan impressed in New Zealand in the hills and the team demonstrated their faith in the 23 year old with a new contract.

@sutty68 Thanks, I appreciate your support!
De Vlaame Pijl - Stannah
03.03
The team started March with another one-day race in the Belgian flatlands. Another day for the sprinters?
The field was packed full of fast men: Commeyne, Eeckhout, Bagdonas, Downing, Traksel, Bacquet, Amorison and Smolen were are all touted as contenders.
The team would be hoping Briggs could repeat his strong performance at the Beverbeek Classic, despite the fact he stil wasn't up to race shape quite yet.
It was beautiful day out in Belgium and Hampton made the day's break.
Hampton and his breakaway companions enjoyed the sunshine
An Post and Landbouwkredit had things firmly in control back in the bunch.
A sea of green at the front of peloton
The race was all back together with 10km to go. Raleigh decided to repeat their tactics from Beverbeek and formed an impressive lead out train for Briggs, going elbow to elbow with An Post's train.
Raleigh vs An Post
Coming into the final 3km and Raleigh were still looking strong. Amorison and Lloyd fought for Briggs' wheel, while only Bellis was left to lead out An Post's Eeckhout.
Things looked good for Raleigh with 3km to go
Bellis caused panic by taking up the sprint very early. Raleigh's train disintegrated and Briggs lost Sulzberger's wheel. Eeckhout then came out from behind Bellis's wheel, with Dowing and Commeyne just behind.
Eeckhout leads the dash for the line
Eeckhout held on to take the win, beating Beverbeek winner Commeyne into second. Britain's Russell Downing picked up third. Sulzberger sneaked 10th with Briggs further down in 14th. A bad day for Raleigh.

The field was full of top puncheurs. Betancur, Pellizotti, Sella, Rabottini, Serpa, Garzelli and Tour of South Africa winner Fred Rodriguez would provide very stiff competition for the Raleigh boys.
After his success in South Africa, we were putting our hopes in Evan Oliphant today. Beating this stellar field was going to be a tough ask however!
South Africa KOM winner Townshend got into the early break, joined by Bissinger (Vorarlberg), Mould (An Post) and Niyonshuti (MTN)
Young gun Townshend got in to the day's break
The break was brought back on the final climb however. Rodriguez then put in a powerful attack.
Fred Rodriguez attacks
Only Betancur, Pellizotti and Sella could respond. Oliphant and Holohan were caught out of position behind and stuck in the peleton.
Rodriguez, Pellizotti, Sella and Betancur formed an unstoppable breakaway group
The four opened out an impressive lead in no time and with 1km to go Rodriguez lead out the sprint.
The four leaders fight it out
In the end it was Pellizotti who took the win (sorry, no photo!), with Betanur in second and Rodriguez rounding out the podium.
Hampton managed a strong 13th place while Oliphant came in a frustrated 16th. A reasonable result for Raleigh all things considered; it was always going to be a big ask to get a result against this opposition.

@all Thanks again for the encouragement everyone
This race on the Istrian peninsula of Croatia has been going since 2000. The course is considered flat, although the undulating terrain and the odd cobbled section makes this a challenging course.
This race attracted a relatively small field. Van Rensburg, Jorgenson and Tennant were considered favourites along with Raleigh's own Jamie Sparling.
With Sparling lacking race sharpness, we weren't as convinced as the pundits that he was a contender. Instead, our plan was to look to Hampton and Sulzberger to impress today.
The day started badly to say the least for Raleigh, when our leader Hampton was forced to retire injured.
Hampton abandons, a major blow for Raleigh
Distracted by this bad news, Raleigh didn't manage to get a rider into the break today. Instead, Pereira (PRT), Chaddock (XRG), Grmay (MTN), Benetseder (UBG) and Moren (AMO) formed the day's break. The group worked well together.
The break makes its way up the cobbled forest road
In fact, the group worked so well that tehy began to open out a threatening lead. Raleigh worked hard on the front of the peloton to bring the gap down, but the other teams didn't want to cooperate. With 20km to go the break held a lead of two and a half minutes. With the other teams refusing to play ball, Sparling put in a desperate attack to try to bridge the gap to the break.
This spurred the peloton back into life. Sparling was caught in no man's land between the break and the bunch and was eventually swept up with 3.5km to go. But the break stayed managed to stay clear.
The break approaches the finishing straight
Grmay lead the break into the finishing straight and led out the sprint, but it was Benetseder who took the win, pipping Moren on the line.
Benetseder wins
Meanwhile behind, woeful organisation from Raleigh meant that Sulzberger got blocked in and finished way down the field. The day had finished as badly as it started.

After the Trofej Porec, Hampton was sent to the hospital to get checked out. The devastating news for the team was that he will be out until the middle of May. This will be a big blow to the team, who are now down to a squad of just 11 riders for the time being.

This undulating ciruit race is set in Italy and has been going since 1985. Enrico Battaglin has won the last two editions.
With a supposedly flat parcours, Eeckhout, Napolitano, Bagdonas, Kern and Smolen were the bookies favourites before the race began, but we had our eye on punchier riders like Pellizotti and Betancur.
A number of our riders were still getting up to race fitness. Sulzberger would be our man for the sprints and we were hoping Oliphant's strength on the hills could prove useful if the going go tough. Either way, the team were determined to make up for the poor showing at Porec last week.
The race began with another incident for Raleigh, as our sprint man Sulzberger punctured early on.
Janssen paces Sulzberger back to the bunch
Up ahead however, things were looking more promising, as Holohan made it into the breakaway with Van Leberghe (JVC) and Blanco (EFG). We were surprised the peloton let a rider of Blanco's quality into the escape.
Holohan makes the day's break
Meanwhile Sulzberger and Janssen made it back to the bunch safely.
Panic over, Bernie and Janssen make it back to the peloton
The breakaway trio worked very well together and still had a lead of a minute and a half with just 15km. Holohan drove things on to try to make the break stick all the way to the line.
Holohan puts his foot down
The escape's chances increased substantially when a crash in the bunch behind interrupted the chase. Could Raleigh be heading for the podium or even a win?
The day was marred by a big crash in the bunch
Oliphant and Sulzberger took advantage of the confusion the crash caused by following a small break of dangerous riders including Pellizotti and Bagdonas. Up front, however, the trio were looking assured of staying away. Holohan moved neatly onto Blanco's wheel as the sprint began.
Holohan follow's Blanco in the dash for the line
But Blanco was too strong for both Holohan and Van Leberghe in the end. Holohan was still delighted with his third place however.
Blanco takes the win, Holohan third
Meanwhile Oliphant took 7th and Sulzberger 9th to complete a great day for the team.

So unlucky for Hampton 
But lets hope that Holohan's third place cheered him up a bit |
