Drysdale Motorcycles KTM debut for Neil Chatham

Neil Chatham made his Drysdale Motorcycles KTM debut at the ACU British Enduro Sprint at the weekend. Neil has been out of action since breaking his wrist in Slovakia back in June last year riding for the UEM Promotional Enduro Team.

Neil was out to get two days competition under his belt before the Muntjac Enduro in two weeks. The first test started with a blistering time on his run beating many of the established names although his lack of competition saw him slip down the order as the day progressed.

‘This was just what I needed, a tough test of my fitness before the Muntjac. I am really feeling it with such a long time out of action. I have been training and riding as much as possible but there is nothing like a proper competition. I had a couple of big crashes that cost me but I will be more controlled at the Muntjac. I have had the KTM 125 since October and I am really getting to know it now and I can’t wait to ride it at the Muntjac. I can’t thank Thomas and Alan at Drysdales enough for their support and helping get the bike ready’

Neil finished 3rd E1 and 8th overall Under 23 on Saturday and 3rd E1 and 11th Overall under 23 on Sunday.
