Andrews and Mason sign for MSS Kawasaki

MSS Colchester Kawasaki has announced the team's 2010 rider line-up for next year's British Superbike Championship will consist of Simon Andrews and Gary Mason.

Andrews has re-signed after a year with the squad, whilst Mason comes off the back off a very strong year, dominating the Superbike Privateers Cup.

Andrews, 25, from Evesham, said; “Being honest I did speak to loads of teams but ultimately Nick and the guys at MSS Colchester and Kawasaki UK treated me so well and we gelled straight away, so it was a pretty straightforward decision. The only delay was due to me riding at Macau and holidaying, I find I need to switch off after the hectic BSB season but now I’m really excited about next year. We’re looking for an even better campaign and I know we can be fighting for podiums and wins this time around.”

Mason, 30, from Lichfield: “This really is an amazing opportunity for me, I’m so pumped to be at MSS Colchester for next season. They’ve done so well this year, Kawasaki are really behind them and the development plans look really good, they’re not sitting back! Nick Morgan at MSS really helped get me a Superbike ride as his support in 2000 got me noticed with my Euro Superstock win at Brands, we won by twelve seconds! This year I know it’s a great chance for me and I want to consistently fight with the front runners.”
