Former Manx Grand Prix and TT riders John
Barton and Nigel Beattie have been appointed Riders’ Liaison Officers
for the Manx Grand Prix by the race organisers, the Manx Motor
Cycle Club.
The appointments are part of the continuing advancements within the organising
club to improve the already good relationship between competitors and officials
prior to and during the annual Manx Grand Prix races.
John and Nigel are both well known to all regular competitors in the ‘Manx’ and
will ensure that all Newcomers’ in 2008 and future years will be made as welcome
as returning riders and brought gently into the ‘Manx family’ atmosphere.
Both amicable and approachable personalities, Nigel, who won the Lightweight
Manx Grand Prix in 2002 and John, who secured second and third podium positions
in the Singles TT’s of 1977 & 2000, will be the direct link between competitors
and the club. |
