NEW GGUK ENDURO TEAM FOR 2009!

I am pleased to announce that TEAM GAS GAS UK will return to British Championship Enduro next year!

We have a new Team in place which is to be managed by the well known and respected Enduro expert MR. STEVE PLAIN.
Steve's knowledge of the Sport is second to none and will prove to be a big asset for the riders.

Steve will be the new GAS GAS UK Enduro Team Manager and we will have a 4 man Team for all major UK events including all the BEC, GBXC, The Welsh', The Tough One and other various 3 hour races / Cross Country style races..
Steve will be at all these UK events to support the Team etc.

The 4 Riders which we have signed for "Team GAS GAS UK" are ASHLEY WOOD, GARETH HOPKINS, BRADLEY KING and LUKE MEREDITH
Im sure these four will be a strong force in the paddock next year. Ashley, Gareth and Bradley will all ride in the main Championship Class but capacity class still not known.
Ashley has had some good results this year aboard various bikes and his win at the recent Natterjack BEC event resulted in being the No1 rider for GGUK for 2009.Ashley will also ride the European Enduro rounds and selected WEC.
Gareth and Brad have battled all year in the Expert Class with both riders and families showing 100% commitment to the Sport which is so needed in Enduro. These two will take the huge step up to the Championship Class for 2009.
Luke will stay in the Expert E2 Class because he still has alot to learn in 'Traditional Enduros' and although he is learning fast we feel he is not yet ready for Championship 'check pace' so he will stay in the Experts and will try and win it outright. His pace at the Cross Country events is impressive.

We will also support WAYNE BRAYBROOK for the Extreme Events.
Wayne needs no introduction at all, his commitment, talent and general work ethic is the bench mark for any young Enduro Rider and will ride as and when his work and family commitments allow him to. At 38 Wayne can still embarrass many young riders and will continue to do so for many years yet ;-)

We also intend to continue our support to ROBERT WRAYFORD when he recovers from his 'broken neck'.
We also have various GG Dealers supporting their local riders.

Steve is pictured with the Factory Gas Gas head R+D guy / 2 Stroke supremo...... 'BONI'.
Steve and Boni have a good relationship and this offers a direct link for Steve with the GG Factory for technical support etc.

Roll on next year.....;-)
