“At Husqvarna Motorcycles we’ve been impressed with the level of professionalism shown by Lee and his team throughout 2019, so offering support to the ASA United team was a logical and easy decision to make. Mel’s track record speaks for itself and it’s great to see the partnership in action straight away at the Weston Beach Race – we wish the team the best of luck for Weston and the 2020 season.”
