TWO motorcycle sporting disciplines combined for the benefit of progress when British junior speedway champion James Humby sealed a valuable sponsorship deal with Motofax.

The Southampton-based motorcycle equipment wholesalers is run by Stuart Hardy and his brothers Andy and Adam who recently completed the demanding Scottish Six Days Trial.

It was the first time in the 50-year history of the prestigious event that three brothers had not only started together but had gone on to finish.

British under-15 champion Humby from Romsey is aiming to move up to the more senior level of the Conference League and this year is out to impress would-be team selectors.

"Having the assistance of Stuart, Andy and Sadam for helmets and chains is fantastic," said James. "Being able to appear on the track in the most professional way that I can inspires me to ride to the best of my ability all the time."
