Ryan Brain racing at Brands Hatch - March 2010

From his first biking experience, riding round a local car park on a mini moto aged 8 to British Mini Moto Champion to following in his heroes tyre tracks at Brands Hatch, the last 5 years have been a roller coaster ride for Ryan Brain.

Ryan who was 13 in January 2010 is currently riding an Aprillia RS 125 and is competing in the North Gloucester Road Racing and EMRA Championships plus any other races his Dad can afford. Ryan’s bike is on loan from Turn One Racing  – it had been left in a garage and neglected for a couple of years and as Ryan was looking to move on from racing a Conti 80 to a full sized bike this was an opportunity not to be missed. The bike needed a full overhaul, some new bits and a lot of TLC but finally it was ready for its debut at Mallory Park. Ryan being of slight stature could barley touch the floor, but none the less he was soon throwing it round the track.

Disaster at Cadwell park, mid 2009 season ending in a broken wrist, put pay to that season.

But now Ryan is back for 2010 and means business – his bike may not be the flashest on the track but his determination makes up for that.  Ryan is out to prove that he’s got what it takes
