UK (9/29/2010) - After a great season
in the European and British Championships, 22
year old English rider Paul Holmes, 2009 European
Champion and runner-up in 2010, enters the Australian
Quad Championship which is going to be held
on the 16th & 17th October at Jindong MX
Park, Western Australia. Holmes knows the competition
will be tough, and riding in a pack of completely
new riders will be an exciting challenge but
he’s hoping to take a step on the podium
for the overall result.
This season Holmes has been a privateer rider
running under his ‘HOLMES Racing’
banner. A factory rider for KTM UK in 2009,
Holmes moved on successfully and has claimed
over 20 European and British race podiums, not
forgetting 2 overall wins in the European Championship
and 2 overall wins in the British Championship,
1 of those being a perfect 3 win race day. Holmes
is continuing his training program and is preparing
well for the Australian Championship race weekend.
Holmes has received great help and support
from Len Pipiciello of NRG ATV who has made
this venture possible. Paul will have additional
sponsorship for this event from NRG ATV, Ant
and Lee Yewers of Berry Sweet Strawberries,
KTM Australia, PEP Suspension, Goldspeed Tyres,
Lonestar Racing, DWT and SHIFT Racing.
