Offshore savings bank announce sponsorship for world trials superstar Steve Colley

    International savings bank, Bradford & Bingley International (BBI) is proud to sponsor world trials star Steve Colley over the coming year.

/24-7PressRelease/ - REYKJAVIK, ICELAND, June 23, 2007 - From his home in the Isle of Man Steve travels all over the world to compete at the highest level of trials riding. He has an impressive resume of wins stretching back over 16 years and continues to push trials bike riding to new heights. Despite a full calendar of practising and competing Steve still finds time to entertain the crowds, most recently at the Isle of Man TT 2007 Centenary festival, with his jaw dropping skills. Steve added "It's an amazing feeling to be out in front of thousands of people, pushing the bike to its limit and scaling boulders and vehicles. There is nothing quite like it for getting the adrenaline going. I love what I do and get a real buzz out of entertaining crowds. Without the support of sponsors it would be extremely difficult and so I am really grateful to Bradford & Bingley International for their support."

Managing Director of Bradford & Bingley International, John Sheath adds "Competing takes Steve all over the world and he is a true ambassador for the Isle of Man. Steve has a fantastic record of achievement and his focus has kept him at the top level for over 16 years. It is with great pleasure that we sponsor him over the coming year and we all look forward to his next performance here on the Island."
