Favourite Steve Colley stayed true to form over the weekend, as he claimed his 11th Manx Two Day Trial title.

He won the Gilbert Harding Challenge Trophy and the Jack Quayle Memorial Sword Isle of Man Centre Award for the best Manx solo, dropping just 14 marks.

However, rival Dan Thorpe wasn't too far behind him with 17 points.

In third it was talented youngster Nigel Crellin who won four awards including the best solo under 21, best newcomer and best Manx solo newcomer.

The multi-talented Juan Knight claimed fourth sport, and Phil Disney was fifth.

Jeremy Darlington won the Solo Clubman Class on his 300 Gas Gas from a field of 184 finishers. Second was Simon Levett and third was Neil Christian. Katy Sunter was awarded the Sykes Bowl for the best performance by a lady competitor.

The pairing of Robin Luscombe and Les Ashby took the Sidecars class, and Adrian Beale and Jane Birchall were the first Manx team home in second place overall.

Adrian and Aaron Smith were third.
