Another Yank for Knockhill round

Jake Zemke will return to racing in two weeks - though he has to go across the Atlantic to make that happen. Zemke will ride a WFR Honda in the Knockhill Racing round of the British Superbike Series in Scotland, June 18-19.

A guy from NC has just referred to a Californian as a "yank". It's a good thing this article is in reference to British Superbike.



I'm interested to see how Zemke does. WFR Honda is an Evo team. Zemke will not be at the sharp end, but he does have a competitive Evo bike and he will be back on a Honda SBK for the first time since 2007 (IIRC). BSB has obtained the services of another top American rider. If someone gives him an SS ride, his talents will really shine through.

Well let's be honest, if your from California, your not really anything....

I too hope he fares well in BSB.

Zemke won his class at Snetterton. And to cap off the "yank" 4th of July festivities, Hopkins won race one and podium race two (which he lead every lap except for last, a last lap incident).
