“Something new for the 2023 season – the 97 Club is open now! Giving you the chance to get involved with the team in 2023.
What is the 97 Club?
To support me as I make the step up to the Isle of Man TT – the main event for the year, you can join the club for £97 for the 2023 season.”
He continued:
“Members will receive an official 97 Club t-shirt and sticker, as well as being entered into the end of season raffle.
You can choose a number or be given one randomly! I’d like to fill 97 spaces, with each name (personal or business) going on the official club-members board. The board will be displayed at each race meeting through the year.
After a good Manx GP – I’m working hard to get everything together for a good season next year.”
