the core team members who have helped bring the team record to new heights in
the last two seasons.
Fast man and one day threat, 30 year old Brad Huff

starts his third year with the 'Sports Beans' squad, joining the team as a
stagiare in 2008; a talented young rider he's been knocking on the door of a
victory delivering 9 top ten performances in 2009. Definitely a rider to watch
in 2010.
