01-01-10 - Pat McDougall in Almeria for East Coast Racing test
30-01-2010
Pat and his father David today flew to Spain for the start tomorrow of his first winter test with East Coast Racing at Almeria, in preparation for the 2010 BSB season.
The teams machinery arrived back in the UK following the Macau GP, in time for the four day test. In addition to their 2008 model R1 Superbike the team are testing their newly prepared 2009 model R1 Superbike and R6 Supersport. These bikes will be contesting both BSB and the full roads programme.
Dan Linfoot and I are travelling out on Sunday to support Pat and the team so hopefully the gallery will contain some photos of the test over the coming days.
