MX Team Profile

After a very successful 2010 National Series Pelotrain/Race Nation MX Team finished with 1 National Championships and 1 podium position while achieving many race wins and podium throughout the year in the respective classes.

2011 once again sees Pelotrain back with a competitive line up for the National Championship while taking on some new upcoming athletes who have been showing great potential.

The team will consist of these riders in the following categories::

Pro Mini:

Having won the National Championship in this class for the last 2 years,  it is important to the team to make a hat-trick of it in 2011. For this to happen Pelotrain has signed up hard worker and talented rider Zane Farqusahn. Zane spent alot of Janaury in Cape Town with the team as he is from JHB and has shown great speed and work ethic early on.

Maria Pulinckx will also be riding the Pro Mini class for 2011, this young lady keeps on impressing everyone every year and this year we doubt it will be any different!

MX2 & MX1:

Anthony Reynard returns to the team for the 4th consecutive year. Anthony is a machine and a professional. After finishing 3rd in MX1 and 4th in MX2 in 2010, Anthony will be focusing 2011 in the MX1 class while using the MX2 class as a warm up for the MX1.

Matthew Beers is the new MX2 rider on the team, racing only a short time Matthew finished 5ht overall in the Highschool class for 2010 in his 1st year of Nationals and has now moved up to the MX2 class.

MX1 & S1 Motard:

Coming off a huge injury in 2010 Michael Kok will compete in MX1 and S1 Motard Nationals for the team. Michael is a truly gifted athlete and a rider but bad luck and situatiuations have led to the #1 plate being just out of reach. For 2011 Mike has taken things seriously training wise and I am keeping him close under my wing.  To date we are looking like Mike has got his game back. A focused and fit Mike is deadly combination.

MASTERS AND Motard:

Multiple South African National Champion Wayne Smith has joined the team for 2011. Wayne has more South African Championships than the country has had presidents and the knowledge he brings to the team will be very helpfull to the young riders on the team.

The team will once again be supported by Honda South Africa.
