Purple Helmet Mick Seward will be riding with extra reassurance on the safety front this year. He’s been sponsored by Forcefield Body Armour and will wear the protection at the Isle of Man TT stunt show – a spectacular pantomime for the tens of thousands of visitors who travel to the Isle of Man every year for the TT races – and at the International Six Days Enduro (ISDE).
Forcefield is also sponsoring British SuperBike riders Glenn Irwin (Be Wiser Ducati), Christian Iddon (Tyco BMW), Bjorn Estment (Everquip Racing), Andy Irwin and Ben Currie (Gearlink Kawasaki) and Fraser Rogers (Morello Racing). Nineteen-year old Bradley Ray is also on board and will be making his superbike debut with Buildbase Suzuki.
