Boastie finds another star

Bike’s road tester and talent spotter Pete Boast has done it again. While guiding teenager Franco Bourne to Junior Superstock success, Boastie has also helped 18-year-old Jack Bell to win the DTRA Flat-track Hooligan Championship at his first attempt, on a Ducati Scrambler. ‘He’s proper fast,’ says Boastie, himself a former British and Euro flat-track champ. ‘He started sand racing at Mablethorpe and never misses practice at my place. He’s doing the world championship next year.’ [ flattrackschool.co.uk ]
