Lee likes his Oates
By TMX Archives on 11th Mar 10
HAVING supported motocrosser Iain Shankie in the past, Mickey Oates Motorcycles have agreed a deal to support his son Lee on a new Sherco 290 for 2010. Twenty year-old Lee will compete in the Scottish Championship, British Championship and will also contest the Scottish Six Days Trial.
Grahame Ferguson from Mickey Oates said, Having known his Dad Iain for a number of years, we are pleased to be able to help Lee out this year. The family are totally committed to off-road sport and always give 100 per cent.
Ian has also just launched the new Bob MacGregor Trials Academy in Glasgow to promote trials in Scotland (see story, page 2) and help people to get more out of the sport and we are pleased to be associated with this venture too. Lee would like to thank the guys at Malcolm Rathmell Sport and of course Mickey Oates for the new bike.
