Garry McCoy may be known as the Sultan of Slide, Nicky Hayden loves to lower the TC on his bike and power drift, Ryuichi Kiyonari strutted his stuff in the wet at Donington Park this year, but check out Bill Wagner from Freestyle Supermoto crew at the Sachsenring with an Aprilia 550. This guy lives sideways.

Thanks to mwinani for the tip.

Garry McCoy will be returning to the championship after his heavy crash and, riding with the Triumph Italia BE1 team at Portimao. The Australian rider is very well-known for his aggressive riding style.

Team Manager Giuliano Rovelli has said they’ll be trying three motorbikes at Portimao: ” Our goal is to line up three motorbikes at Portimao where we feel confident to have the chance to grab a very good result. I’m really glad to have Garry with us, on a new track where all the teams have no point of reference. Garry’s big experience will be really helpful to carry on our growth.”

Garry McCoy is also happy to have the opportunity to ride for the Triumph Italia BE1 racing bikes. He likes the bike and he believes the Daytona 675 has a big potential, he said: “after the testing session at Mugello, I think that was we could finish in the top five. The test was useful in order to get a feedback about my physical conditions. No problems at all, except a light pain at one rib when I change direction quickly, but I think I’ll be ok within fifteen days at Portimao.”

The Vallelunga weekend was not a good one for the Italian Team Triumph-SC. Andrea Zappa returned to the pit after a few laps and Alex Cudlin finished 27th.

But we have also a good news, the spectacular rider Garry McCoy was visiting the team on Saturday as the Australian rider plans to return to racing. He is supposed to be fit for the Magny-Cours race. Garry said at Vallelunga: “We had quite difficult time and my accident happened just in the least opportune moment. I believe that the bike has done a fair progress and I hope to be able to contribute again to the team.”

If Garry will be at Magny-Cours, Twowheelsblog will have an exclusive interview for our readers!
