CANADIAN-based international Supercross promoters Future West have been busy preparing for the UK's only British International Supercross Series at Birmingham NEC Arena on October 6 and Sheffield Arena on October 20.

Newly crowned 125 AMA/Chevy Trucks US Motocross Series Champion Mike Brown, riding his Pro Circuit Kawasaki, heads a formidable line-up.

Mike was last year's British motocross champion and was also the British International Supercross Champion in both the British and International classes, so is no stranger to the enthusiastic UK fans.

A trio of current top American riders also keen to ride in the UK and close to agreeing terms with Future West's John Hellam for a place in the series are Costa Rican-born Ernesto Fonseca and Nathan Ramsey.

British riders confirmed to race at both the NEC and Sheffield include former champions Neil Prince (Honda) and Rob Herring (Yamaha), who will be joined by young stars Billy McKenzie (Yamaha) and Matt Winstanley (Honda).

Tickets for the NEC are available on 0870 909 4133 and for Sheffield from their box office on 0114 256 5656.
