2026 national road race rankings: the final standings

Loughborough Lightning and Ride Revolution Coaching are the 2026 team champions, and Lily Martin and Thomas Armstrong the individual champions, after both team titles were decided on the last day of the season at Walton.

Loughborough Lightning and Ride Revolution Coaching are The British Continentalโ€™s 2026 team champions, and Lily Martin and Thomas Armstrong the individual champions, after the national road race rankings closed with Saturdayโ€™s Riders Collective GP and KLM Taxis Womenโ€™s GP at Walton. Both team titles were decided on the day.

Lightningโ€™s was the closer call. DASโ€“Hutchinson had led the womenโ€™s table for some time and came to the final round 38 points clear, with no rider entered. Lightning had two on the startlist: Georgia Lancaster finished fifth and Rosie Simmons 13th, worth 46 points between them, and Lightning finish on 1,028 to DASโ€“Hutchinsonโ€™s 1,020. FTPโ€“Fulfil The Potential Racing are third on 972, with Handsling Alba Development Road Team fourth and Paralloy RT fifth. Lancaster has been a stagiaire with Oโ€™Shea Red Chilli Bikes for UCI races since August; she remains registered with Lightning for domestic racing, as Martin does under the same arrangement, and her points stay with them.

In the open table Ride Revolution Coaching led JAKROO Handsling Racing by 17 points going in and brought seven riders to JAKROOโ€™s two. Oscar Nisbettโ€™s second place at Walton was JAKROOโ€™s answer; Clay Daviesโ€™s fourth and Josh Housleyโ€™s sixth were Ride Revolutionโ€™s, and the Hertfordshire team finish on 1,424 to 1,388. Wheelbase CabTech Castelli, the 2025 runners-up, are third on 1,228, with DAS Richardsons fourth on 1,160 and Foran CT fifth.

The individual titles were settled before the weekend. Martin, a Lightning rider, wins the womenโ€™s rankings on 582 points, 147 clear of Morven Yeoman (DASโ€“Hutchinson), with Anna Morris third on 428. Armstrong (Wheelbase CabTech Castelli) wins the open rankings on 578, 130 clear of Danylo Riwnyj (Foran CT), with Lewis Tinsley (BCC Race Team) third on 382. Daviesโ€™s fourth place at Walton lifted him to fourth overall, past Oliver Dawson and Alex Murphy, and Adam Lewisโ€™s win took him into the top 10.
