Kneen to race at Ulster

Manxman snapped up by Tyco

Tyco BMW has announced Dan Kneen will ride for them at the 2017 MCE Ulster Grand Prix.

With Ian Hutchinson out of contention for the Dundrod meeting due to the injuries he sustained at the TT, former Ulster GP winner Kneen is set to be the team’s only rider at the final international road race of the year.

Manxman Dan, 30, had his most successful TT campaign to date this year, securing both his fastest lap and a debut podium in the Superstock race behind Ian Hutchinson and Peter Hickman.

Dan is delighted with the move and optimistic he will perform well at Dundrod:-
