January PR update...

Thanks to Jane Bird, media coverage about Leon has been busy throughout January. 'Nuneaton News' have run a story announcing new sponsor 'Arbury Gates and Railings', as did the the 'Coventry Telegraph' who also mentioned the new deal that has been agreed with 'Moto World UK'. The 'Coventry Telegraph' also ran an article about Leon being nominated for the '2009 Nuneaton and Bedworth Sports Forum Senior Sports Personality Award'. This is an incredible achievement for Leon, and highlights how people are starting to notice how much Leon has achieved in his racing career so far. The winners will be announced on Tuesday 2nd February at the ceremony at Nuneaton Town Hall...well done Leon, and good luck for Tuesday...

Happy New Year!

Well today sees the beginning of 2010, and it started with a rather splendid write-up in the 'Shropshire Star'. Jane Bird has been working her magic again and managed to get more than half a page in the middle of the motoring section. Well done Jane, it's a great beginning to what will hopefully be a great year...


(Nice!)

Christmas go-karting...

It's been a while since I've updated the blog, I guess things get busy over the Christmas period. Anyway, last week Leon and myself waved the BMC flag in a go-karting race in Birmingham. And guess what...WE WON! It was a very eventful race though (an hour long endurance) where black flags, crashes and a brief stoppage played their part in the final result. We qualified second on the grid, which included eleven teams of two drivers each. Leon even managed to get the second fastest lap of the race, and there were some very fine drivers indeed. It was a great way to spend an afternoon during the holidays, and a big thanks goes out to Jody Lees for arranging it all. Expect to see Leon and myself teaming up again soon...

Here's the first lap, I'm the driver in second place:



And here's the gold medal that we won:
