Jeffrey Herlings, a four-time world champion, will compete in the second round of the Revo ACU British Motocross Championship Fuelled by Gulf Race Fuels this Sunday (23rd May) at Cadders Hill, Lyng.
The Bullet, who began his career in 2002 by winning the Dutch National Federation Championship on a 65cc and now holds four World Championship titles on the KTM 450 SX-F, will compete in the MX1 class at Norwich’s popular hillside circuit.
Jeffrey Herlings commented “I am excited to go racing in Lyng this weekend for the British Championship after 8 months of no gate drop for me and get my feet wet to start the World Championships in a couple of weeks’ times. England always provides good tracks, great fans and strong competition. See you all Sunday at Cadders Hill.”
Gareth Hockey, Director of RHL Activities, comments on the Herlings’ performance at Lyng. “It’s great for the British Championship to welcome Jeffrey Herlings over this weekend for the second stop of the 2021 season. We have previously had Jeffrey at other events RHL have hosted across the years including his youth career so it’s great to see him come and show his support to the British fans this weekend. We would like to thank Stebbings and SC Sporthomes for their support and making this happen.”
Phil Armes, chairman of the organizing club, the Norwich Vikings, is thrilled to welcome Jeffrey Herlings to Norfolk, “this is the icing on the cake for us, and all British motocross fans. Although we are restricted to 4,000 fans under the Covid guidelines to have not only Jeffrey but Ben and Nathan Watson lining up against a full British Championship field promises to be a brilliant return to live action motocross in the UK.”
