The NMRRL moved onto Stainton for the third and final Series of 2010. The first races were contested by the A & B Groups in fine conditions.
The Group B race stayed together with no attacks of any note succeeding. The inevitable bunch sprint was won by junior Dominic Smith (Retford & District Wheelers) ahead of Steve Cocker (TLI) with Sam Kirby (RVO Racing) in 3rd place. After missing his last race at Harworth, Smith's win enabled him to close the gap to just 5 points in the Overall Group B standings.
The Group A race was also fairly uneventful with the only attack of note coming from Andrew Lees (Sheffrec CC) & Keith Ollerenshaw (Dinnington RC/Universal Cycle Centre) who opened up a 15 second gap at the midway point only for the race to come back together a lap later. At the finish, Richard Nutt (Dinnington RC) was a clear winner in the bunch sprint ahead of Lees with veteran Ken Downing (Thurcroft CC) in 3rd place.
Also of note was 14 year old Jessie Walker (Dinnington RC), daughter of triple NMRRL Champion Chris Walker getting a creditable 10th place in her first road race on open roads.
