By Christchurch’s Jack Petrie, 2024 road racing season plans have received a timely boost, thanks to support from the vastly respected People’s Bike squad.
This year’s EMRA (East Midlands Racing Association) Super Twins and Classic Era Champion, in late May/June Petrie unlocked TT racer membership.
Setting a best lap speed of 117.859 mph, the Southern 100 podium finisher went onto bank four top forty finishes with his best finish been 22nd in the second, three-lap Carole Nash Super Twins race.
Delighted at acquiring, People’s Bike support, Petrie who is set to sample next year, the Isle of Man’s big three road racing events, the TT Races, Southern 100 and Manx Grand Prix, stated via the People’s Bike Facebook page.
“Really happy to be joining The People’s Bike for 2024 and a huge thanks to the whole team for the opportunity.
We had a great first TT in 2023, the aim of next year is to build on the speed and hopefully the results will follow.
To have the opportunity to work and ride for the team at all three road racing events on the Isle of Man in 2024 is a huge advantage for me and one I don’t take for granted.
Once again thank you to my personal sponsors and the teams sponsors and see you all in 24.”
