As you will have noticed I will again racing in the Manx Grand Prix in 2005. The Manx GP takes place
between 20th of August till 3rd September 2005 and I will be racing on the Honda RVF400 in the Ultra
Lightweight and the Honda CBR600RR in the Junior.
Below is a list of all the cost that are involved
in racing in the Manx Grand Prix. This list will be updated as and when new cost are found, if you know
any I have missed please e-mail me.
If you can help in anyway or would like to sponsor me for say
tyres or fuel I will add a link and give you all the coverage possible.
I have got the help of
fellow racers Brett Moore and Shaun Maddern in my pit this year which will be a great boost for me.

We have decided to rebuild the 2003 short circuit RVF400 with all new parts for the Manx in 2005. The
bike will only be used for the MGP and then retired, it the bike that I won two short circuit championships
on in 2002.
