Emma Davies Jones wins GP Evergem
Swift Racing, the female cycling team sponsored by the Swift Group, got off to the best possible start to the season when British rider, Emma Davies Jones, beat off strong competition to win the GP Evergem Race in Belgium.
With 147 riders starting the race, Emma, who missed most of last year through injury, had a comfortable victory to put herself back in contention for a place in the British Cycling team at this summer?s Olympic Games in China.
The race was over 80km, over 12 laps, and good support from the rest of the team allowed Emma to break from the main pack and win in a sprint finish.
Swift Racing compete in events throughout Europe and use a Bessacarr motorhome in a striking pink colour scheme as their headquarters at each event. Swift has provided a long term sponsorship of the team with the objective of developing a strong line up of female British riders to compete in the 2012 Olympics in London.
