Ben on the Podium!

Posted: Mon 25 Mar 2002

In Valkenswaard, Holland Ben has wowed them all by finishing 2nd in the first round of the World GP series won by Steve Ramon.
The young Kiwi KTM rider defeated last year´s winner Erik Eggens to claim his first ever Grand Prix podium.
Pit pundits, fellow racers and Townley´s Big Five Vangani KTM team were stunned with the kid´s performance.
No mention of MJChurch Kawasaki`s Kiwi, Darryl Atkins.

Josh [Coppins] would probably not be so happy with his 5th, but still very creditable finishing place in the 250 class.
