Nicole Cooke won the elite womens' British National Road Race Championship again, for the eighth time. Yippeee! :D

see www.britishcycling.org.uk for the details ('cos it ain't on bbc cycling pages).

Thanks AlbionLass, I hadn't spotted it, perhaps stupidly relying on the BBC - which we've seen in another thread is car rather than cycling orientated. And where sport is concerned it's also deficient in covering women's sport. Double whammy for Nicole Cooke :(

Maybe she'd have stood more chance if she had strapped a football somewhere on her bicycle?

It wasn't me that posted it it was Mrs Tortoise, I don't want to take the credit.

Oops! :oops: Sorry Mrs Tortoise.
How embarrassing - me going on about a woman being ignored and then ignoring one in the process. :o

No problem, the bbc caught up with things about lunch time.
