I am so excited to be back on the Honda bike with CIA Landlord Insurance and I believe I can be the World Champion. This is my dream and this is my target and I think we can do it so I am really excited. I am also happy to work again with Simon Buckmaster because I have a great relationship with him and I know that it will work so I am looking forward to that also.”
