Commenting on his involvement with the recently launched 90th NW200 anniversary parade lap, Breda Tyre and Exhaust Centre’s John Miller, candidly stated:

“The North West 200 is a great place to showcase our business, and it is superb to be able to support this fantastic event.

We have been working with the NW200 as volunteers for a number of years, but to be on board as sponsors is very special because we are people who have a strong motorbike background.

Back in the day our father John was a road racer and I raced motocross, competing against World Superbike champion Jonathan Rea’s father, Johnny.”

North West 200 Event Director, Mervyn Whyte MBE provided additional comment:

“The Miller brothers are passionate about motorcycle racing, and have a great interest in classic and vintage machinery.

It is fantastic to have their support for our display and parade of previous North West winners, which will capture the imagination of everyone at this year’s 90th birthday celebrations.”
