Looking towards his prospective Mountain Course stint of 2018, he has elected to enter the newly introduced Ultra Lightweight races, which will run alongside the Super Twins dominated Lightweight encounters.

RS 125 mounted for the three lap races, the ambitious Danish road racer is also this year set to take in the Lightweight Classic TT for the second time, piloting his trusty year 2000 spec TZ 250 Yamaha.
