Front Row GB at the Dawn to Dusk

Front Row GB can confirm Stan Watt will be competing at this years Dawn to Dusk in the all new 24 hour event.




Stan will be using a KTM 690R and competing in the 'marathon' class where he will have to cover the course for 24hrs as the sole rider.

The event will include the usual 12hr event and also the 6hr event, with all start times relevant so everyone finishes at the same time on Sunday evening 30th August.

As can be imagined, not only is it difficult to ride for such a period of time on such a technical course, it is also difficult to find enough support staff. Anyone interested in getting involved and helping out please drop the team a line at mail@frontrowgb.com or call +44 (0) 289 581 1149

Bike checking 12.30pm-4.30pm
Briefing- 5.00pm in the marquee, followed by Sighting Lap on the video screen
Race Start- 7.00pm

The 24 hour race will start at 7.00pm on the night of 29th August. Competitors will start off around a shortened lap of approximately 7 miles.

As darkness descends, the lights will come on illuminating various sections of the course. Over the night time hours the shorter course will steer clear from the technical, tight sections that Dawn to Dusk veterans are familiar with.

The course will then open up to it's full 15-18 miles when the sun rises on Sunday morning. Sunday morning will also see the start of the 12 hour race at 7am followed by the 6 hour race at 12pm.

The weekends racing culminates at 7.00pm on Sunday when competitors in all three of the races will head towards the chequered flag and then the bar for a few well earned drinks, and a bite to eat, to help celebrate a hard weekend riding.

8.30pm - 9.00pm will then see a small presentation in the marquee where the winners will be announced and presented with their prizes.

International Six Day Event 2009

With the fortcoming Portugal based ISDE in October closing in, it is with regret and disappointment that Stan Watt from Front Row GB will not be able to participate as part of the original lineup with Danny Hall and Bradley King.

After the ACU stated the team was NOT accepted to compete at this year's ISDE, Front Row GB had made other commitments that unfortuately cannot be altered. It is unfortunate command decisions by the ACU could not have been made sooner and the late change of plan has prevented Stan from taking part in such a prestigious event.

Good luck to the team and Stan's replacement Tyson Maytom-Jones.
