During the week my main role for Michelin is calling on local retailers / race accounts. At weekends I visit as many of the club meetings as possible to support the service providers / riders, with tyre choice, technical set up.
This is the area I am keen to bring to the Power Cup in 2012, along with rest of the Michelin team. Away from my Michelin role I spend my private time racing R1 in various clubs and classes as time allows, I managed to ride in couple of the Power Cup rounds in 2010, even snuck a win….. Thanks rain & Jon otter……
Finally, I’m looking forward to the 2012 season, working with all the Michelin riders across all the UK clubs. See you at the track soon…
