'Pocket Rocket' hails successful bid
A Manx former professional cyclist says it's 'fantastic' the Isle of Man will once again host the British National Road Championships.
It was announced earlier this week the event would be held here for the first time in 22 years, in June this year.
Steve Joughin, the 'Pocket Rocket', won the men's road race on home soil in 1984.
He says it's great news the championships are back on the Island, given its cycling pedigree:
Athletics: Strong race for Mullarkey in Florida
Manxman finished 26th in World Cross Country Championships
Rugby: First win of the season for Ramsey
Douglas get back to winning ways
Hockey: Vikings A and Bacchas A win big in opening weekend of 2026 season

Football: Colby go top of Division 2
