Unfortunatley due to an ankle operation on an old injury Garry had to sit out the whole of 2004 but has now taken delivery of his RS250 Honda for 2005. The machine has been tuned by former racer and 2 stroke Guru Ian Emberton. Garry completed a practice/ running in day at Cadwell park last week and felt the bike was spot on, he commented " It had no end of drive out of corners and keeps pulling really strong all the way through the rev range, Ian Emberton has done a great job on the motor, I just can't wait to race it now".
