Entries for the 2010 Lincoln Grand Prix closed this week and an impressive list of 200 riders from both home and away are scheduled to start the 86 mile race on Sunday, May 9th. Riding as Number1 for the third time will be the race winner in 2005, 2008 and 2009 Russell Downing who will be going all out for a record fourth win in this prestigious and popular event. Russell is now a member of the ambitious Team Sky who have future glory in the Tour de France as their objective. Russell will be joined on the start line by team mates Olympic gold medallist Geraint Thomas, who was listed to start the Grand Prix last year but was sidelined by illness, Ben Swift now enjoying his second year as a professional rider and talented youngster and past junior world champion Peter Kennaugh from the Isle of Man.

They will not be having it all their own way as all 43 riders currently listed with points on British Cycling's Premier Calendar Competition are entered currently led by Endura Racing's Ian Wilkinson (second in the 2009 Grand Prix) and Jack Bauer and Rapha Condor Sharp's Chris Newton (third last year). Beijing medallist Chris is a former winner of the Grand Prix back in 2000 and recently showed his form in the World Track Championships in Copenhagen where he narrowly missed out on medal positions.

There's lots of opposition from overseas with an Irish national team containing 2005 Grand Prix winner David O'Loughlin and Philip Lavery the winner of the Easter 4 Day tour of the North in Northern Ireland. Team Sprocket are here for the second year and have already scored points in the Premier League with Niklas Gustavsson and Guernsey rider Tobyn Horton in high positions in the season opener Tour of the Reservoir.

Regular friends of the Grand Prix, Ruiter Dakapellen from the Netherlands return to Lincoln this year as a team of six riders, five of which are in the Under 23 category award supported by race main sponsor County Conferences and Events. The international flavour does not stop there as many of the teams have foreign riders in their line ups with names from France, New Zealand, Australia, Germany and Jamaica all in the mix. The latter is Marloe Rodman, the current Jamaica National Road Champion riding in the Science in Sport team.

Other previous winners in the line up are evergreen Malcolm Elliott who won way back in 1983 but is always up there at the front on the cobbles, Kristian House (2006), Dean Downing (2007) and John Tanner (1997 and 2001)

There are so many likely contenders in the line up who could take home the winner's prize, it's hard to pick one out but well worthy of a mention is another Beijing medallist Motorpoint Marshalls Pasta rider Ed Clancy. Ed recently won the difficult new Omnium World Championship in Copenhagen and could be a man on form.

The race again features the Brian Cossavella Michaelgate Trophy sponsored by Universal Cycle Centre. This trophy, in memory of a well know race organiser and regular official at the Grand Prix, is won on points for the first three riders crossing the finish line each lap and has been carried off by Russell Downing along with the victor's spoils in both 2008 and 2009.

Another competition within the race is for the highest placed rider from major sponsor east midlands development agency's area of Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Rutland.

The race is one of the City of Lincoln's main sporting events and this year also has the support of the University of Lincoln along with lots of local sponsors and businesses without whose support this great race would not be possible.

Television will again be at the race with Eurosport coverage augmented by exciting new helicopter shots over the City and surrounding countryside.

The 55th Lincoln Grand Prix starts at 10 am and covers 11 laps of the 8 mile circuit based in Lincoln's popular tourist areas with the finish taking place under the shadow of the Cathedral and Castle after the 11th climb of the notorious 1 in 6 cobbled climb of Michaelgate.
