IT may have been a chilly day at Addingham Moorside on Sunday but the action was glowing as 77 competitors battled for points in the opening event of Yeadon-Guiseley Motor Club’s first in house championship series.

Closed to club it have been and no doubt Silsden's Dougie Lampkin, right on his own patch, would not expect interlopers from Telford and Leyburn to surface.

They did in the form of Scorpa pilot Tom Minta and Gas Gas front man Richard Sadler.

The trio rode ten section four times without dropping a boot.

East Morton's Martin Crosswaite was right with the trio until he dabbed section two on lap two.

Just to rub salt into the wounds, Dec Bullock parked his Gas Gas in fifth place ahead of top novice Charlie Smith.

Youth Class A was a further sanctuary for immigrants with Buxton’s talented Harry Turner and Alice Minta claiming the youth laurels.

At least the action on the championship course class was lively, but it did calm down in Clubman A and Clubman B with the usual characters in play.

John Bannister took Clubman A - just, from Class B youngster Alfie Lampkin who rode his Vertigo to a splendid second place just one penalty behind Bannister.

Clubman B was an age thing with Rob Hardisty taking the Over 50's class and his riding mate Phillip Hammond flying the flag for the over 40s.

Rawdon's Chris Beecroft and Cullingworth's Robin Luscombe were in the mix in the Over 50’s brigade. Lusky seems well at home with his Triumph Cub and is always a threat.

Only seven small wheelers signed, and Jamie Graeme, Josh Dent and William Blackwell were the class winners.

The Horsforth and District Motor club’s opening Simon Green Championship trial at Tong was almost overwhelmed when 125 competitors arrived at the Parkwood Offroad Centre on Sunday morning.

A four-lap trial with ten sections was plotted well in advance plus a separate small wheels route for a dozen young girls and boys.

Bradford’s Keiran Child won the hard course class losing all his five penalties in section three.
