Conrod Motorsport will debut next year
Isle of Man TT star Conor Cummins has announced he will be entering his own team for 2026.
Conrod Motorsport - inspired by the Ramsey man's coffee brand- will debut at next year's event, 20 years after he first rode on the Mountain Course.
Initially, Conrod will contest the two Superstock TT races with the machine yet to be confirmed, while Cummins will 'review' his options for the the Superbike and Supersport classes.
Conor said: “I’m really looking forward to the new challenge of running my own team.
“The competition is tougher than ever, so I’m under no illusion as to how much work this is going to take."
The Manxman had competed for a number of teams over the past few years - he withdrew from 2024 event after splitting with Milenco by Padgett's Motorcycles, before racing for Burrows Engineering and RK Racing earlier this year.
He added: "I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some great people and great teams over the years, and I’ll be bringing all that know-how together to make sure I’m in the strongest possible position when it’s time to go racing.”
