Thomas Mein (Tormans Cyclo Cross Team) took his first elite national title at the British Cyclo-cross National Championships on Sunday, using his power to produce a last lap attack after a race-long battle with Cameron Mason (Trinity Racing). 

Mason had tried to distance his rival on the second lap only for Mein to provide a response to his attack. The Trinity Racing rider was then forced onto the back foot sliding out in the mud and having to claw his way back to Mein. Coming into the last lap the pair were evenly matched before Mein powered through the mud to pull out his winning margin.
