Season 30 has seen Elroy Heidel rise to the challenge and has seen him return victorious from Germany and clinch his first trophy with a fine win in Critérium La Provence. His consistent results throughout the season have allowed him to finish as the top English rider ahead of impressive competition in the shape of Adrien Gosselin.
A fellow national champion in his own right, Baltasar Ceratti has had a season of mixed fortune, with a series of poor performances mid-season see him return unrewarded from some well suited races such as Bytom - Katowice, Circuit d´Andorra, Brescia Climbs and Porto - Castelo Branco. A fine victory in Trofeo Bajando a Granada however topped off a reasonable season for him, and hopefully one he can build on in the coming campaign with some better fortune.
Falkner Loch's opportunities were somewhat limited by Elroy Heidel's leadership, but saw him pull in two results and without him, no doubt Elroy would not have been quite as prolific.
Rhett Plaster is still being trained but has already shown great promise with a Division 1 result at the age of 23. Whether he will be Mr Bergen Rundtur or even Mr Essex remains to be seen.
Horatio Marlowe moved on to English Sprinting Team who, on realising he was a terrible lead out allowed him to move on to Team Kernow. Now fully rested and in his prime, we are intrigued to see where his future targets lie. Having occupied 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in three different classics, we would love to see him add to that record, as something of a top form classics specialist!

Just here to say congrats on your season, your team is impressive, even without Heidel :)
What an achievement with Heidel ! Congrats !
Thank you, I hope he can have another good season. He is fairly well suited to Essex, Germany and Vuelta so I hope he can comtinue with some success. He is in the right division as Volta (no HL, 3 TTs) and Norway (lots of TQ) probably don't suit him as well.
Great season, top rider!
Heidel has emerged as one of the best tour riders in the game. He may win some more tours, maybe even repeat the feat in Germany. Congratz.
Heidel is a giant! Congrats with your impressive season. Winning Germany Tour is really something.
Glad to hear it. I hope he goes well for you. With a breakaway to get TS up, your team could well start as favourites...
Congrats BTW. Heidel - Superb!
Ainet - Bruggen, coming up ;)
