Motorcycling ace, Luke Jones has been snapped up by the Superbike racing team 'PR Racing' and given a contract to compete for them on a 1000 cc Yamaha in the 2010 British Superbike season.

The deal was agreed at a meeting held on Sunday, January 31st, between team representatives, Luke, and his dad, Dave Jones, at which PR Racing said that Luke was the rider they wanted for their team. The details of the testing runs will be revealed in a couple of week's time.

Last year Luke competed in the Metzler National Superstock 600 Championship. In spite of missing some racing through injury he finished in third place in the championship.

Luke and the Jones Team need to find sponsorship as all contracts include a deal where cash has to come from the rider. If there is anyone who would like to sponsor Luke and become involved in Superbike racing would they please contact Dave on 01432 270816 or at his work on 01432 265458.
