- Will race at Round Four of WCRC in Italy
- Competing on a Yamaha R7
Avalon Lewis, a motorcycle racer from New Zealand is all set to make a comeback after her maternal leave, to compete in the next round of the Women’s World Circuit Racing Championship.
The race is being held at the Cremona circuit in Italy and marks the fourth round of the Championship. Well, 2024 marks the inaugural year of the Women’s WCRC which is conducted at select WSBK events and involves female riders from across the globe competing on Yamaha R7s with equal machinery.
Lewis will have limited time with an R7 in New Zealand before heading to the races. “I’m looking forward to giving it my all against some of the best riders in the world. With a few rounds under their belt and some track time at this circuit already, these women are very competitive”, she says.
Avalon Lewis (nee Biddle) has won numerous accolades over the years including the European Women’s Cup and the 2019 New Zealand Supersport 600 championship and is a role model for aspiring female athletes.
The BRM Team wishes Avalon the best of luck and hopes she brings home the Championship trophy!
