Thrills and Spills in Wales !!
Its a long old Journey for most YPM'ers - 5 Hours + in the van, more for those in Norfolk or way up the A1M but year on year the YPM's make the journey, provide a decent grid and of course some great racing - Its a relatively simple track on the face of it but to get it right takes some time and commitment - Its flat and featureless, flows real well, has a flat out kink out the back, a long straight and the tightest of all hairpins at the end of it...

Herron Swoops Back!!
It was like turning back time at Brands this weekend with the return of 2009 YPM champion Pat Herron, and despite being TZR250 mounted he picked up where he left off on the 350YPVS with a brace of wins.
With Pat on Dexter Eyres Bike and ex superteen and Minitwin racer Jesse Jones on the Rangi Racing machine, the #13 and #27 bikes returned to their familiar positions up front..
Add to this it was the first YPM outing for the rookies of 2012, the meeting had a fresh feel to it with some familiar faces fighting for the top steps in that of King and Higlett..
Higlett actually grabbed pole from Jones and returnee Herron with King completing the front Row – Richard Sawyer a rookie for 2012 put in a stonking qualy to take 5th from Edmonson, Wake and Miles completing the top 8…

New for 2012 will the YPM Taster Weekend. This is aimed at helping riders that are seriously considering racing and haven’t quite got everything together yet. It is hoped that the taster weekend will provide everything you need to go racing –such as a bike, tyres, fuel, warmers, transponder, race entries, and a full day testing. Full details are still being finalised but it is hoped that we will be able to offer a race weekend for a stunningly low cost of £450(ish). With an experienced helper thrown in, racing really doesn’t come cheaper than that.
More details will follow but if you are interested in a taster weekend then please let us know by filling out your details in the Contact section.

With the long winter break almost over riders are itching to get back in the fold.
The Bemsee Rookie day was run this past weekend at Brands - 4 rookies turned up for the YPM class. Kev Higerty took the role of teaching the new blood this year, having been a pupil himself in 2009. Garage 25 was full of the riders all eager to get that first taste of YPM world in 2012 and of course to watch the traditional practice start. Gary Button was on hand help/fix/bend/weld anything that was needed and all in all it was a succesful weekend with only one bike playing major silly buggers...
