Commenting on been the famous Italian marques, sole representative at the opening international road race of the year, Ben said:
“I’m looking forward to riding the Aprilia that I ride week in, week out in the BSB Superstock class.”
EHA Racing team co owner Gail Allingham added:
“We are really excited to coming over to compete at the North West with Ben.
As we compete in the British championship we don’t do many races in Ireland so it is really nice to get this opportunity to bring our team home.”
