FOR only the fifth time since 1986, Guernsey’s won the inter-insular trophy following some exciting riding and dominance among the MX2 class.

The inter-insular is calculated through all seven classes and a youth and senior trophy are up for grabs annually.

The Jersey autos brought a strong side with Adam Godwin claiming all three wins in his class along with fellow Jersey riders in second and third.
