"The event is a splendid showcase for the sultanate's outstanding riding talent," added the Honda National Sales Manager. "Of course it's great to see the Honda bikes being put through their paces but it's about more than that - it's about promoting sport, inspiring people to excel and building community spirit. That's the real strength of this event. "

Turner went on to say:

"At Honda we place a premium not just on quality, achievement and excellence but also on the determination and spirit that it takes to reach the top and the competitors in the Championship certainly showed that. What's more, the Club's committee and members did an amazing job and we look forward many more in the future."
