Ed Clancy (Rapha-Condor-JLT) was the surprise winner of the ninth round of the Pearl Izumi Tour Series in Woking as UK Youth edged closer to their maiden overall victory in the event.
Clancy, who admitted after the race that he thought he would never win on the twisty, technical circuit, took his third win of the 2013 series and his sixth in the event's history to become the most decorated Tour Series rider.
UK Youth won the team prize on the night - their sixth win in seven rounds - to open up a 13-point gap with just three rounds remaining.
Speaking afterwards, Clancy told Cycling Weekly: "Another win is great. I've been tired and I really didn't have high hopes today. It's a hard circuit, and I said beforhand that I hate this place. I've never had a good round here, I've always been on the backfoot.
"It was one of the more emotional wins. I've won bigger races than this, but this was the one I didn't think I could win. I really didn't think it was possible."
In the Johnson Health Tech GP Series, overall leader Hannah Barnes (MG-Maxifuel) came back from a nasty crash in the opening laps to win her third round in succession and further extend her advantage at the top of the table.
Barnes needed stitches in her chin after landing face-first in the fall, but got the better of French rider Roxanne Fournier (Big Mat Auber) in the bunch sprint.
The women's series finishes in Aylsham on Thursday, while the men continue after that race to the two-round Grand Final in Ipswich on Friday.
