Leon Morris - proudly supported by Lucky Knickers!

Dear Ducatisti!

Please join us at LK giving Leon Morris (No. 10 - Trimite Brookspeed 1098R - Privateer Cup) a huge round of applause for not only qualifying way up from the back of the grid at Thruxton this weekend - but also finishing both races including the restart

Lucky Knickers are one of the sponsors (Trimite - UK leading industrial paint/coatings manufacturer is primary sponsor - thanks chaps) along with MotoRapido and Solent Scientific - and we had to be there yesterday.

What an outstanding performance by Leon - 21 yrs old and holding his own with the best of BSB - both races saw Leon achieve fantastic starts and even managing to gain places once the pack formation had settled after the initial laps. Despite running 17" rims and different rubber to the rest of the BSB riders, Leon proved he will be one to watch during 2008 Bennetts BSB series.

Anyone wanting to support Leon - contact me, MotoRapido, Brookspeed.com whether it's to find out where we are in the paddock or to offer other help/sponsorship.

Fantastic effort and deserved result Leon! Well done mate!

Yes! Congratulations Leon and the Team
I was watching out for him or some details - grid and finishing positions etc (on the box) but no mention/coverage - typical.

Well done Leon,

Two good rides.

The more he rides in the class the better he'll get

Keep going Leon, and you'll get your rewards

Serious lean angle there Moose

Would I be right in thinking that all the UK circuits are unknown to Leon

leon's a star turn for sure... although, the similarity between R6 and BSB must be minimal

if i were to experience that transition (and this is of course hypothetical) i would be doing some serious muscle training.... with the majority of my work being to keep my arse muscles firmly closed under pressure!
