It’s been some time since we posted! We’ve had lots going on away from racing and let this slide, but we’re finally getting round to writing something, and it’s only taken until round 4…
We need to start with a few shout outs to people who help make this happen, so this is an appreciation post! All racers know how vital these folks are.
As always, Keith and the whole Stringer family at Fern Kitchens and Bathrooms make a huge difference to us in multiple ways, so thank you.
We’ve had come on board again this year, again, really helps us out.
The Simpson family have followed us since the old CB500 days, and continue to support.
Can’t miss out the 2 Steves, who are unbelievably important to our team, working back in the workshop with Dad to prep the bike and ensure that what is underneath Jim is always as good as it can be. Their efforts have been huge and they’ve been there since the very start - can’t say thanks enough to them.
Big thanks to Fortis Racing who are always willing to help and look after us, top blokes.
Most recently we’ve had Knox give us a helping hand towards some new Handroid gloves - only my 4th pair since the start of 2015 and we’ve done full seasons every year since then. These are quality and I trust them.
Special thanks to Dad, Mam and Sarah for the continued support and endless help, without which none of this would be possible.
And finally to everyone and anyone who cheers us on, stops and says hello or is just generally friendly and supportive towards our small team!
So loads of thanks to loads of people who all contribute to our effort - it is hugely appreciated 👌👌
Now for Jim to do his bit and reflect the effort right back…
