Is it true that Rutter will ride for Paul Bird next year? I hear he has.

Just announced , Rutter signed for Stobart........

possibly riding in 2006 NW 200 but no statement about 2006 TT yet

according to:
http://www.britishsuperbike.com/vsite/vc...em,00.html

the knockhill round of bsb will clash with the senior race friday june 9th, so looks very unlikely. if he's commited to bsb, there's no chance of doing the t.t.
ade!

pity that. you'd have imagined that the big events (bsb, tt, nw200, ugp) would somehow work around each other calendar-wise.
