Yeah have been striking that "individual" thing quite a bit lately, unless your part of a team you're shit out of luck for some reason.

If someone could elaborate as to why a "team" is better then feel free to do so please.

Woohooh - does a two person Team count I wonder ?

Hang on a minute........................if I put my pillion seat back on and get someone crazy enough to sit on it.....................that might qualify :clap:

I wonder then if they would sponsor a whole class such as Streetstock 150's, Motards etc?

They also might be worth a go to get behind the Nationals. Though timeframes stated would mean that it couldnt happen until next year and who know's if they'll still be around then!

Hang on! Don't dismiss it, I would'nt approach them because of conflict with vodafone but anyone is a TEAM. When I'm putting out a proposal I list my team members, ie manager, Tech director etc etc. An individual is riding but it is a race team. Worth a shot. It's all about how you paint the picture.

Good point! I do hate that whole 'conflict of interest' stuff though! I have been offered alsorts of amazing sponsorship deals that would mean I wouldnt have to pay ANYTHING to race through a couple of major companies, however working in Procurement for a Govt Dept puts paid to me being able to take any of these offers up along with my partner.... ;(
