Manx cyclist wins silver at British Championships

Island competitor Matthew Bostock in top three of cycling elite

Manx cyclist Matthew Bostock has taken the silver medal in the under-23 road race at the HSBC National Road Cycling Championships in Norfolk.

The race in Sandringham saw plenty of Manx interest, with five male Manx or Isle of Man-based riders competing.

Island resident Ben Swift took gold in the elite men's road race.

Mark Christian was eighth, and Bostock ninth overall.

The two races, like the women's, were run concurrently.
