Madison Genesis dominated the night in Durham. After regaining the green points jerseys from JLT Condor by winning team honours in the hill climb, they managed to get 3 riders in the break. Connor Swifth, Richard Handley and Johnny McEvoy worked well on the front and never really looked like being brought back despite a determined chase led by Canyon Eisberg. The Madison Genesis riders' work on the front meant Andy Tennant was able to sit in the group for much of the race before clipping off on the final climb to the line to take individual honours.
