Dougie Lampkin made a welcome appearance on home ground in Bradford Motor Club’s Boxing Day Trial at Howden Wood and marked it with a winning performance.

He rode the entire three-lap course without any penalty but had to share top spot with Cookridge’s British champion James Dabill who matched the 12-times world trials title holder through every section at the Silsden venue.

Shibden’s Jack Challoner lost a single penalty to finish third ahead of Lampkin’s East Keswick cousins Dan and Ben Hemingway.

Phil Disney took sixth place ahead of Huddersfield 14-year-old Jack Price.

Former Barrowford sidecar trials star Phil Scott won the clubman class with Silsden’s Robert Cockshott, third.

Ian Austermuhle beat Askrigg’s Philip Alderson in the Wetherby club’s annual Bottle Trial at wet and watery Cockhill Mines on Tuesday.

Harrogate’s Joel Sadler returned to serious competition after his arm injury last Spring to finish third.

Colne rider Darren Mitchell topped the clubman class from Shipley’s Paul Gravestock and Darley agricultural engineer Michael Platts.

Durham’s Rob Waite took the youth class while Kirkby- moorside’s promising Jack Peace ruled the clubman youth class.
