Watch out for young Kev Coughlan in this race. He has qualified 2nd in his first outing at this level. Absolutely wonderful young rider from the heartland of Scotland and I am sure that Stella, Helen and co North of the border will be willing him on today.

Certainly a great hope for the future of British riders in motorcycle racing at the highest level.

Just been on <A HREF="http://www.msttiming.com">www.msttiming.com</A> !

What a fantastic result for young Kev today in the 125 race at Brands.

We and some of the other scottish racers had the priveledge of sharing a garage with him at some of the MRO rounds last year and i said then he would be a Star !
Also a certain Mr Paul Smart was watching with us too and reckoned he would be one to watch in the future.

His racing lines and style for a young lad were a pleasure to see.

cheers,
Stella

Yes, one or two people watching this young man and next weekend at Knockhill we have a whole new batch of youngsters coming out to play.

Stella, is that your Bryan over at Kirkistown?

Hi Harvey

Yes its my Bryan :-)

Really enjoyed himself but quite an eventfull journey to get there on there way back at moment.

Will tell you all at the weekend !

cheers,
Stella

He is also a very polite and considerate young man who is a credit to our sport.

We had them all this weekend at East Fortune, Harvey! Watch out in particular for Tim Hastings. He's amazing.

Helen, Tim is down for Knockhill, we'll see then.

Would also like to mention wee Robbie Stewart, who has taken up where Kev left off at last weekends MRO round at Brands Indy circuit.
He won all of his 4 races in the Aprilia RS 125 superteen class on sat/sun.
Was also consistantly fastest in morning warm up too !!
It will be on sky tv soon, well worth a watch.

cheers,
Stella

Robbie will be at Knockhill as well.

Good stuff !

We just need some sunshine and 20 degrees like it was at Brands ! ;-)

Isn't is sad we won't see any of this new generation of 125 riders at the TT on 125s?

Deffo no Don...

as they are all age between ? 11yrs and ? 16yrs ish !!

Very difficult to believe when you watch em !!!

cheers,
Stella

Thanks Stella,next thing I would have Helen accusing me of watching little boys.

2 years ago Midge Smart was racing in the 125 s/bikes with the Red Bull team but i havnt heard nothing of his progress lately, can anyone enlighten me as to his wereabouts as he was a star in the making.

Midge and his Mum & Dad were spectating at Brands at the weekend. Midge is fine he won the 04/05 New Zealand 125cc Championship (during our winter months) this season he will compete in the Spanish Championships.

Thanks for the info on Midge and hope he does well in Spain.

Yes EXCELLENT RESULT ! WELL DONE KEVIN.
I remember him at the Kirkcaldy Dinner, he was sat
there next to us. Remember that Helen, that was
over three years ago when he was 12 ! How he's come along.

Also saw Bryan Campbell had two excellent results at Kirkstown. Stella is he doing more Irish meetings ?

He really enjoyed himself Gail and would love to go back.All his budget this year is geared to the MRO championships but if he can he will !
Hope you enjoy the story at top of the page !!

cheers,
Stella
