Motor Sport: World indoor and outdoor motor cycle trials champion Dougie Lampkin won the international arena trial at Oveido, Spain from Spaniards Marc Colomer and Marcel Justribo.

The Silsden double champion missed the Scottish Six Days trial at Fort William to fulfil arena contracts but his plans for another event took a knock when a further event planned for next Saturday was cancelled at short notice.

"I may pay a visit to Scotland this week to watch the Scottish trial, but my next major ride will be the British Championship Mitchell Trial in South Wales," said Dougie after jetting back to his Silsden headquarters.

Colomer won the qualifying heats at Oveido, a coastal town overlooking the Bay of Biscay, in front of 8,000 bike crazy Spaniards who gave the home riders plenty of support with air horns and banner waving. Lampkin was next best, by just penalty mark.

Canterbury rider Graham Jarvis was fifth in the qualifier and did not make the final runs.

Results: 1 D Lampkin (GB) Beta 4 penalties; 2 M Colomer (Spain) Montesa 8, 3 M Justribo (Spain) Montesa 10. Non-qualifiers: A Bilbao (Spain) Montesa 16, 16 G Jarvis (GB) Bultaco 19.

The pre-65 Scottish Two Day trial held near Kinlochleven was won by Swedish star Stig Karlsson riding his British built 350cc Triumph machine.

Of the Yorkshire contingent, Lepton's Mick Grant was fifth, Sheffield's Dave Thorpe seventh, Ossett's Chris Bradley 37th, Mick Driffield, from Robberttown, 48th while his 18-year-old daughter Jill was nine places below her father.

Former Ilkley MC president Ian Waddington won the 'Olai Trophy' autotest at Brimham Rock with a score of 838.56 seconds for the 17 very tricky tests, laid out on a slippery grass surface.

Pool fencing contractor Adrian Tate stormed round in his Golf GTi to set the fastest time after winner Waddington. Henry Kitching was third on time penalties in his well used MG Metro. Karen Spencer, from Cookridge, took the best lady driver award.

Sixty-six novice riders entered Yeadon & Guiseley MC's trial at Dob Park where the second round featured the Wooster Cork Trophy, but the star turn was Roundhay schoolboy Liam Walker who managed to beat all the adult riders on the three lap woodland course.

James Lampkin also took part on a no-award basis and lost just one penalty mark on the 12th section on lap one.

Leeds youth national trial championship contender Henry Moorhouse blazed a victory trail at the Bradford DMC trial at Howden Wood, beating all the adults in the open class as well as taking top youth Class A award.

The British Automobile Racing Club have again pulled in a huge entry for their annual two day May spectacular at the Stockon Farm hill climb track on the outskirts of Harewood.

Sunday's programme is bursting at the seams with Ferraris, Morgans, Ginettas, Westfields, Porsche variants and a wealth of sports cars and single seaters of all vintages.

Saturday though is the purist's day - how about 25 Ferraris, a dozen Caterhams sports cars, three Subaru rally cars, a Lancia Delta and a fiery Peugeot two litre 205?

BARC again managed to beat the budget with their pegged prices for admission (£5 adults inc programme, track side viewing car parks, actual speed trap digital speed display, catering and bar facilities).
