Connor Swift pulled off an impressive solo victory in his first gravel race of the season at the Gralloch.
Swift went clear after attacking the lead group in the second half of the race to seal an emphatic victory, finishing the 113km route over six minutes ahead of Sam Culverwell in second.
Cameron Wurf secured his first Ironman podium of the season with a gritty performance on a rolling course in Lanzarote.
Wurf stayed in contention with the leaders on the swim leg, before making the most of his advantage of the bike to head into the marathon in the lead.
However, the Grenadier was caught and passed by eventual winner Arthur Horseau and second placed Niek Heldoorn in the second part of the run leg, to finish third.
