Irish Road Race star, Adrian Archibald will run his
Honda Racing Motorcycles in the colours of energy drink Red Bull in
2001.
Team Manager, Davy Wood has negotiated a deal with Red Bull, who
will provide additional funds for Adrian's 2001 campaign. All the bikes will
display the Red Bull logo on the side of the fairing and seat, along with the
new Honda Racing badge and Adrian's other new sponsor, The Royal Hotel
Cookstown.

Adrian's wife
Melanie told us 'Red Bull are particularly interested in the Coca Cola North
West 200 for obvious reasons, but the are highly supportive of Adrian's other
commitments, unlike some big sponsors'.
She joked 'They are not
interested in Adrian doing any PR work (thank goodness) but just want him to
concentrate on putting his best efforts into performing on the
bikes.
Along with Honda Racing, Red Bull and the Royal Hotel, Adrian
will be supported by his long-term backers including Arthur Faulkner Plumbing,
Eddie Torens Car Breakers, Holgar PVC windows and his own supporters
club.
The popular Ballamoney rider is facing what should be his most
important year of a successful career, so far. Honda will be looking at him to
win at all the major Road Races this year, where he will ride CBR600's and
trick Honda Firblade's alongside John McGuinness.
