Following a stellar performance for his DFL-Cyclingnews-Litespeed team at the Tour of Qinghai Lake, Briton Daniel Lloyd is looking to carry his form forward to the rescheduled British National Championships on August 5th. Lloyd is on superb form after having fought a week long battle with Gabrielle Missaglia (Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia) and Francisco Mancebo (Relax-Gam) to secure a close second place in the final classification in China, just one second shy of eventual winner Missaglia.
On the final stage in the Tour of Qinghai Lake, Lloyd fought for intermediate time bonuses, but on the flat course, the Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia riders were able to control the sprints and keep Lloyd from taking over the lead. Discovery Channel was able to rack up another stage win by sprinter Allan Davis, who added to his tally of four wins.
