In contention for Supersport, Super Twins success at last years Gold Cup meeting, new McAdoo Kawasaki signing Adam McLean is set open his 2018 roads campaign at Scarborough in April, at the two day Spada Spring Cup Road Races, which will include the 2017 Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup.
For the season opening Oliver’s Mount event, the reigning Gary Jess Trophy winner is set to pilot MSS backed Supersport/Superstock Kawasaki’s, plus a third green machine in Super Twins trim courtesy of Roy Hanna Motors.
One of the undoubted stars of 2017 at the mount, he showcased consistently to the large crowds at Scarborough in 2017, why many regard as a future multiple times international road race winner.
Rated highly by many of his fellow competitors, including Jamie Coward, Derek McGee and Davy Morgan, his addition to the Spada Spring Cup entry, adds an additional touch of star quality, to an already impressive looking entry list.
Set to battle against the likes of Scarborough lap record holder Dean Harrison and Dafabet Devitt Racing’s Ivan Lintin, plus new McAdoo team mate James Cowton, Tobermore’s McLean has the proven pace, machinery and most of all talent to contend this April, for multiple race wins.
