Guernsey cyclist Pippa Inderwick won a sprint finish to take women's road race gold at the 2025 Island Games.
She also led her island to team gold as Guernsey added to their women's team trial silver earlier in the week.
Inderwick edged past Faroe Islands' Susanna Skylv Sorensen on the line for the victory.
Gibraltar's Olivia Lett took bronze, just ahead of Guernsey's Hannah Kennedy.
Chloe Truffitt, Andrea Nightingale, Hannah Kennedy and Pippa Inderwick combined to win team gold
Chloe Truffitt finished seventh, while Andrea Nightingale was 10th as Guernsey riders dominated the event in Orkney.
"I still can't quite believe it," Inderwick told BBC Channel Islands.
"It's always hard when it goes to a sprint in a bike race.
"It's always a bit nerve-wracking, especially going into final bend - and it's a sharp corner and it's a long, long drag to the finish - so overwhelmed to come out with a win."
Archery gold for Guernsey's Gray
Zoe Gray has won gold and silver medal at this summer's Island Games
There was more success for Zoe Gray as the Guernsey archer added compound head-to-head knockout gold to her singles silver.
Gray beat Faroe Islands' Anja Eydnudottir 137-132 in the final to avenge her loss to her in the individual event earlier in the week.
Guernsey went on to get a second archery medal when Monika Komla won silver in the women's recurve head-to-head knockout.
Komla was beaten 6-0 by Jersey's Mollie Perrett in the final.
Bown wins fifth swimming gold for Guernsey
Chloe Bown has won eight medals at the 2025 Island Games
Guernsey's women set a new Island Games record in the 4x100m freestyle relay.
The team of Molly Staples, Tatiana Tostevin, Chloe Bown and Orla Rabey beat the previous mark set 12 years ago by almost two seconds as they won Guernsey's fifth gold medal in the pool.
Bown, who has had a hand in all five gold medals either individually or in relays, added to her tally further with a bronze in the 100m breaststroke.
It was the teenager's eighth medal at Orkney 2025 and her first bronze.
Meanwhile, Orla Rabey took her tally of medals to five as she won silver in the women's 400m freestyle behind Jersey's Clara Ginnis.
Rabey's Guernsey team-mate Delphine Riley finished third to claim the bronze medal.
