November 3rd, Sheffield, England
Sheren Out/DeHaan In
As November the 3rd and the first round of the Future West ACU British Supercross Championship draws ever closer, the impressive world class rider line-up will see the addition of another Canuck to the line up. Doug Dehaan of Ontario, Canada who rode for the Butler Brother's US Supercross/Motocros team in 2007 will be racing aboard a PAR Homes Honda at the opening round of the Future West ACU British Supercross Championships. Dougy D will be replacing fellow Canadian Brady Sheren who broke his wrist last weekend testing and preparing for Sheffield. Sheren will be out for at least 6 weeks but will be back in time for Anaheim 1 in January.
"It's too bad for Brady I know he was looking forward to coming to Sheffield, it would have been a great experience for him, fortunately we have a long list of other riders who want to come and Doug Dehaan was at the top of the list. Doug should have never been on the reserve list in the first place, he deserves a much higher rung on the ladder. We had already commited to soo many riders and when Doug called me originally there just wasn't any space left for him". says Future West's John Hellam.
With an amazing list of riders lined up to compete the qualifying action will be as intense as the finals with only 10 riders going on to the main event. Tickets for Sheffield are moving fast.
