Springbok Multiple MX champion Ryan Hunt with 4 decades of national championships to his name and a selected team of SA Motocross riders, will tackle the tough International MXDN World Veteran event at Farleigh Castle in the UK. This year’s team comprises German based motocross legend, multiple SA National Champion and international GP rider Colin Dugmore, Springbok and SA National Champion Tony Riddell and Andre David, who spent many years racing in the UK competing in the British MX2 and MX1 Championship, the British 2 stroke series. The team will again take on the world’s top veteran riders at this year’s event. Except for Colin Dugmore all 3 riders have represented South Africa in last year’s event and past events at Farleigh Castle.
Gavin Williams of Global ASP Limited will again be supplying and sponsoring the pre-1989 machines from his huge collection of outstanding rebuilt Motocross machines. “The team owe a big thanks to Gavin Williams of Global ASP Limited who has a fabulous collection of superb MX machinery, and for all his motorcycle preparation and fantastic team support, this is the second year the team have had this great support and backing from Gavin.”
“This event is a costly program for the team who pay a lot of the costs themselves, but this year we need help with, airfares, accommodation and shipping the bikes and parts to the UK. In return for this assistance the sponsors will be a full co-sponsor for the four-man team, with branding on all riders and their motorcycles, we will also enter under the sponsors name, give them a full pre-and post-PR program and the TV coverage we bring back every year for local flighting, this is really a great deal for a sponsor as the returns in coverage are huge compared to any financial outlay the sponsor puts in,” said Hunt.
“This is the toughest International veteran event for most riders, mainly due to the older machinery they have to ride, any rider entering this event has to get used to riding this machinery again,” said Gavin Williams. Which is very different to anything that they are used to riding, the motorcycles are much heavier, handling is a challenge as they have far less suspension, also they certainly don’t stop as well as the latest stuff and one must be super fit to ride these older heavyweights, on what is considered as one of the most demanding circuits in the UK. We can also expect the same weather conditions that we always have at Farleigh Castle this is always guaranteed at this circuit.” said Williams
