by isleofman.com 6th October 2010

The Isle of Man has picked up its first medal of the Commonwealth Games, after Mark Christian claimed bronze in the 40km men's points race.

The 20-year-old rode a brilliant race to finish joint-third with Wales' Sam Harrison on 37 points, but won the bronze after beating the Welshman in the final sprint.

The gold was won by Australia's Cameron Meyer, who dominated proceedings and lapped the field three times.

Silver went to young English rider George Atkins.
