GASGAS UK and JSM Motorsport sign British stars
By Team TMX on 7th Jan 26
While there may be no GASGAS factory team competing at world level in 2026, a collaboration between GASGAS UK and John Shirt Motorcycles will see two of the UK’s leading trials riders supported on the red and black machines. Officially named JSM Motorsport, the team will field two of Britain’s most talented riders - Jack Dance and Jack Price.
Dance enters his fifth season as a GASGAS-supported athlete. The 20-year-old from West Sussex has been riding GASGAS machinery since the age of six, a journey that has already delivered five Youth titles and culminated in victory in the 2021 Trial125 World Championship. In 2026, Dance will contest the Trial2 World Championship, TrialGB British Championship, Scottish Six Days Trial, and the Scott Trial.
Joining him for the new season is Jack Price, who links up with JSM Motorsport following a frustrating campaign in which technical issues may have cost him victories in both the Scott Trial and Scottish Six Days Trial. A seasoned competitor and true all-rounder, the 27-year-old from Huddersfield will compete across trials and enduro disciplines. Price’s résumé includes wins at the Scottish Six Days Trial, four victories in the Scott Trial, a Trial2 World Championship title, two British Adult Championships, and the British Extreme Enduro Championship.
Price’s 2026 campaign begins with January’s Ball Breaker Extreme Enduro, followed by a packed schedule featuring the British Extreme Enduro Championship, selected TrialGP World Championship rounds, the Scottish Six Days Trial, the Scott Trial, and the Reeth Three Day.
Team Manager John Shirt is proud to be supporting the two riders.
“It’s fantastic to continue our long-standing relationship with GASGAS UK and support two incredible riders,” said Shirt. “Jack Price and Jack Dance have proven themselves at the highest level, and we can’t wait to see what they achieve in 2026.”
GASGAS UK Managing Director Matt Walker shares that enthusiasm.
“We’re thrilled to launch the 2026 team with JSM Motorsport. Jack Price and Jack Dance represent the perfect blend of experience and youthful talent, and we’re confident they’ll showcase what GASGAS is all about - passion, performance, and pushing boundaries.”
