These Guys Get Around:

Posted: Fri 14 Jun 2002

Josh Coppins will be riding at the International German Motocross Championship which gets underway this weekend at Aichwald. He will be the highest ranked world championship rider of the weekend.

Josh`s team mate Pit Beirer will be racing on his home soil, but not on his CR250R. Beirer will be riding a CRF 450. He also rode one a week ago at the Austrian GP. Whereas Josh will be on his familiar CR250R two-stroke. It should make an interesting battle.

Meanwhile the Taupo 17-year-old, Ben Townley, will be joining up with Red Bull KTM, the full factory team, at Budds Creek, USA for his one off ride in that prestigous national event.

Make a mark on your calendar to remind you that the race will be shown on Sky Sport 2, Monday, 1st July at 17:30 (5.30pm)
