Thomas Lee M/C gets the inside line from CDR

... and made a pit stop at Thomas Lee Motorcycles, Moree to give a showroom full of dirt bike enthusiasts the complete run down on what it takes to run and manage a professional motocross team.

The entire CDR Rockstar Yamaha staff spent time going through every detail about building and maintaining a race bike, the logistics of running a race team, testing and rider management as well as the involvement of sponsors.

Marmont and Boyd were also on hand, joining Luke Styke and Ross Beaton to sign posters and mingle with the locals.

"Days like these allow our race teams to connect with the dealers and the public and provide useful information to them on all aspects of owning a dirt bike," said Yamaha's Motorsport Manager, Ray Howard.

"The evening CDR hosted at Albury recently was a huge success and Moree was equally as big, so Yamaha will continue to do these evenings in line with the racing calendar." Howard added.
