Firstly I would like to thank George Bell for helping us get our workshop all set up. We now have a water tight, dust-free environment to work in. We'll be looking forward to seeing George and his wife Peggy at our East Fortune meetings this season where we can hopefully convince George to do the pit board ;-)

Big thanks to Chris Berriman and Dale Robinson for giving us all their helpful advice about going racing. Dale was able to give me some advice on how I should go about attracting new sponsors hence why we now have the Brent Nichol Racing 99 club. To Chris as well, a sponsor of moto2 rider Bradley Smith, who has given me the chance to get involved in a coast to coast riders for health event riding alongside Bradley and Taylor Mackenzie. After the event there will be an interview night at the Avalon Pub in Whitley bay, with Me, Taylor and Bradley hosted by Niall Mackenzie. I'll be posting more about this as the event approaches.

GizmoGalaxy, who have been outstanding with their support for 2012. As well as help with funding, they've got me a place at the Ron Haslam Race School, which I'm hoping will knock a couple of seconds of my current lap times. Also hoping to see Dawn and George on the pit wall cheering me on throughout this season, and in the future.

Hunters Motorcycles has loyally supported me since my racing started giving me a selection of oils and other servicing products. I've really enjoyed working with Alan and am happy to have his continuing support in 2012.

Thanks also to Mark Brook at VinylMark Signs. Another long time sponsor, he will continue to support us in 2012, supplying me with all my race bike graphics and team wear.

Mark Lenthall, who has really played a big part in my racing. He has designed my logos for the past two seasons and keeps this website up and running, making my words legible, as well as helping out at race weekends when he can, by generally being my pit bitch! I'm very grateful for his support and am pleased to retain his support for 2012.

Many thanks as well to Nationwide Civil Engineering and Mark Bowran Contracting, who have recently joined us for the 2012 season. Show your support for Mark as well, as he will be on-track this season for his first year of racing.

Last but not least, my Dad Kevin, who, through our family run business EGS Landscapes, makes this all possible. Not only has he provided competitive race machines (for which I now have no excuses!), he's also my mechanic, driver and frankly, my fairy godmother!
