Postcards from LGCT London

As expected, the London stop of the Longines Global Champions Tour and Global Champions League was nothing short of exhilarating and filled to the brim with fierce competition. History was made as Scott Brash won the LGCT Grand Prix of London for the second consecutive year and became the rider with the most LGCT Grands Prix wins in the history of the circuit. The London Knights pulled out all the stops at their home base to bring home the win in the Global Champions League and further secured their spot as the number one team with a total of 299 points.

Check out some the of the images from this weekend’s competition and prepare yourself for what is to come the 10th through the 12th at the Tops International Arena in Valkenswaard, The Netherlands. With only three stops remaining on the tour, the competition is undoubtedly going to be on fire.
