Standard were introduced to local Superbiker James McBride via a mutual acquaintance.  Given the fact that Keith Malyon, our Sales Director fancies himself as a bit of a biker-boy himself, the conversation flowed!

Keen to assist a local sportsman, Standard intend to use their CNC engineering capability to work to provide ongoing assistance to James, and others with parts and support within motor sport.

To that end we are actively seeking other partners, both locally and nationally to enter into business dealings with which to further our involvement in this area.

Last month James competed in the Daytona  AMA 200 replete with the Standard logo very much to the fore.

For those of you who wish to follow James’s progress here is his itinerary for the rest of 2008.
