With the big Hawkstone International fast approaching on the 23^rd February new names are getting added to the list day by day. Not only are some of the biggest names in the World of motocross riding including the likes of Jeffrey Herlings and Tyla Rattray, there is a vast amount of British and Irish interest also.

One of Irelands top racers Stuart Edmonds will be competing on the CCR Suzuki in the MX1 class –

Stuart Edmonds – “I am delighted to be back on the bike for 2014! I sat out 2013 due to breaking my arm and was out of action for seven months. Hawkstone is a great race for me to get back on my feet and show that I haven’t lost any of my speed. I secured a deal with Mad Dog CCR Suzuki and I am excited to rider my RMZ-450 Suzuki at the Hawkstone International and mix it up with everyone. It’s great to be back I look forward to seeing everyone there.”

From Northern Ireland is young Irishman Graeme Irwin who will be racing on the Heads and All Threads Suzuki.

“I am really looking forward to getting to the Hawkstone International and having another season with the Heads and All Threads Suzuki team. The track is always good and the spectator attendance is never a let down. I hope the weather will be kind this year and we can all have a great days racing.”

Joining them will be ex British Champion Brad Anderson riding for the Buildbase Honda Team.

Brad Anderson – “2013 was a mixed season for me but it started to come good towards the end of the season and I’m hoping to kick start 2014 with some good results. It’s the first race of the year for me and you get to test yourself and your opposition to see where you stand. The track is awesome and I always look forward to riding at the International as there is normally a good backing of British fans.”

Another fans favourite is Lewis Gregory who will be joining his new team GL12, he will contest in the European Championship this year and is looking to kick-start his season at the Hawkstone International.

“I’m looking forward to racing the Hawkstone International as it’s been a few years since I’ve raced it due to injury. It’ll be a great warm up for the year ahead and hopefully they’ll be a great crowd there like normal to give us some moral support.”
