Final Season Results

At the end of a surprisingly normal season of racing, the displaced Paris-Roubaix apart, Steve's Nightowlers (SNO) ran out comfortable winners overall. Lisa's Ready Steady Riders (RSR) depended on one man, Julian Alaphilippe, for the bulk of their points whereas Steve's Nightowlers benefitted from strong contributions from all three of Simon Yates, Bauke Mollema and (to almost universal delight) Mark Cavendish backed up by Sam Bennett, Arnaud Démarre, and Peter Sagan all of whom scored more than Lisa's second best rider, Caleb Ewan.
