Rockstar Energy Suzuki MX1 on show

Tuesday 08 November: The 2011 race season may well be over, but for Rockstar Energy Suzuki World MX1 team riders Clement Desalle and Steve Ramon, along with team manager Eric Geboers and many of the race team staff, the off-season work continues, promoting Suzuki, Rockstar Energy and all the team's other top sponsors.

Over the weekend the team attended the International Dirt Bike Show at

Stoneleigh Park in the UK, along with one of the Rockstar Energy Suzuki World MX1 team trucks, to give a taste of the team's impressive presence at world championship events and to talk to Show visitors about the 2012 RM-Z series machines which were all on display at the Suzuki stand.

Desalle, Ramon and Geboers also kept the crowds entertained with a number of lively interview sessions on the main stage at the Show. The fans were also clearly delighted to see Ramon looking fit and well and making his first public appearance since his horrific crash at Lommel in August where he suffered serious back injuries.

"This has been a great event for us to attend and present the Rockstar Energy Suzuki World MX1 team along with the GP truck, which the fans cannot always get to see at the races. We have really enjoyed meeting so many fans in such a great family show atmosphere, to talk about racing and the new production RM-Z machines," explained Geboers.
