TEAM MI Racing made a proud return to race organising under the guidance of new team owner and main sponsor Garry Townsend.
The team, founded by Coventry cycling legend Mick Ives in 1997, took a break from race organising following his death last year.
However, Team MI Racing hosted a double-header of races earlier this month in a return to race organising.
Townsend has also confirmed future plans to relaunch the team in January 2026 with new sponsors and racing colours.
MI Racing hosted the prestigious British Masters Cycle Racing National Cyclocross Championships at Stable House close to North Kilworth in Leicestershire.
The event attracted riders from all over the country with a number of MI Racing athletes in action.
And the team also endured a busy event in round three of the Leicestershire Cyclo-cross League.
A total of 279 riders took to the start line in six separate age category races ranging from under 9s to veteran 50-plus riders.
The performance of the day saw Philip Roach take the race win in the veteran 60-plus category with Pete Busby eighth and Ray Cochrane 25th in the same race.
In the other races, James Garrett placed fifth in the senior race with teammates Darren Grieves 20th and Sean Shields 21st.
And in the junior race, new signing Ruben Stringfellow finished seventh in his first outing in team colours.
In the veteran 40-plus race, Tom Bradley finished 12th after starting at the back of the grid.
And in the veteran 50-plus race, Nick Popham finished in second place with teammates Andrew Owen fourth and Richard Perham 30th.
At regional level, under-23 team rider Layla Bradbrook sits top of the North West League Mold women’s league after three rounds
And Darren Atkins sits second in the veteran-50-plus standings in the West Midlands league after winning the last two rounds.
In the veteran 60-plus league standings, Coventry rider Pete Busby sits second after a number of consistent performances over the first eight rounds
And in the Notts and Derby league, Nick Popham sits in third place in the veteran 50-plus league standings.
At national level, Nick Whitley backed up his second-place finish in round one of the National Trophy Series with another second-place finish in round two.
Whitley led the series overall after the first two rounds but finished 11th in round three after a busy schedule of racing.
A couple of team riders also entered the British National Hill Climb Championships held in Matlock, Derbyshire.
Team rider Jmaes Bacon finished 11th in the junior category while Tom Parsons finished 84th overall.
