Kyle Ryde took the opening victory of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship season at Silverstone, winning the BikeSocial Sprint race for reigning champions LAMI OMG Racing Yamaha, and is focused on replicating that performance at Oulton Park this weekend.
Ryde celebrated a victory which he followed up with a fourth and seventh place finish, but arriving at round two holding fourth place in the standings, he is full focused on achieving more this Bank holiday weekend.
Ryde said: “I am very much looking forward to Oulton Park this weekend; we had a great test there. I am feeling really confident and comfortable with the bike at the minute. I am in a happy place so I can’t wait to get going. The weather looks good, we need to go from where we left off at Silverstone – and I don’t mean the seventh place, I want to try and replicate the race win we had on Saturday.
“I just need to be cool, calm and collected heading into free practice and enjoy riding, then hopefully the weekend will go smoothly. Oulton Park is more of a riders track, and I can’t wait to see how the points tally looks on Monday after the races this weekend.”
