clarion beat me to it--forumengers Charlotte and kat won the Knutsford Great Race Team Prize. kat tells me that there was some controversy surrounding the finish before they were confirmed as winners, and the BBC still has the incorrect information about the winners.
There's a link to the correct results on this page:

Charlotte and kat beat the next-placed team by a whopping nine laps. The other teams were blokes, all sixteen of them. One other woman, as an individual rider, if I recall correctly.
The individual winner, Jim Brailsford (any relation to Dave?) recorded 107 laps.
kat says that this was a 700-metre circuit with three tight turns. The race format was a distance trial by time; i.e., riders were fitted with a timing chip and were ranked by the distance (number of laps) that they did in three hours.
Well done, both!
