Month: May 2011

We love sidecars and for the second year running we’re very proud to continue our association with the DK Racing team at the 2011 Isle of Man TT races.

Sidecar racing crew Dave Kimberley and Robert Bell rode to two top-ten finishes at TT 2010 and went on to win the 2010 E.M.R.A. F2 Sidecar Championship!

We’d like to wish Dave and Robert the very best of luck for a safe and successful 2011 TT on board the DK Racing / Hancox Art / Just Landscapes / Ireson Honda outfit.

2011 Sidecar TT race schedule:

Saturday June 4th – 3.00pm – Sure Sidecar TT Race 1

Wednesday June 8th – 12.45pm – Sure Sidecar TT Race 2

We’d like to wish Dan Cooper and the Centurion Racing team the very best of luck for a safe and successful TT 2011!

Dan is a former British 125cc Champion and has represented Centurion Racing in the British Supersport Championship in recent years. The 24-year-old will ride a Triumph 675 Daytona in the Supersport class and a Honda Fireblade in the Superstock and Senior TT races.

We’re very proud to have the Hancox Art logo on Dan’s leathers and to be associated with the team.

Centurion Racing will also continue to show their support for Help for Heroes, their chosen charity, by displaying H4H logos on the bikes’ new livery designed by Rage Designs and team attire. Dan’s race helmet has been kindly donated by Arai and will be a one-off design by RichArt showing both the H4H and IOM TT logos.

Team owner Paul Rees, who spent 20 years in Her Majesty’s Royal Marine Commandos, was given permission to have the bikes carry the H4H logos in order to encourage the public to be more aware of this charity that supports our Armed Forces, many of whom are making daily sacrifices in Afghanistan and Iraq.
