BRIT SUCCESS IN DUO NORMAND

CW Racing 2007 logo

As we reported on Monday, Bradley Wiggins gave the large British contingent at the Duo Normand a reason to cheer when he teamed up with his Cofidis team-mate Michiel Elijzen of Holland to win the elite race on Sunday.

But there was also more than a fair of success in the other categories of this hidden gem. The two-up time trial at Marigny in Normandy has long been a favourite time trialists from Britain and the Channel Islands.
