Motocross Mayhem at Devonshire Motors

If you had driven past the showroom several weeks ago- one sunny Friday early-August- you might have seen quite a spectacle. The small strip of grass outside the front of the showroom was transformed, for one day only, into a makeshift photo shoot location for some promotional shots of the Motocross rider we sponsor- Mark Osborne.

Mark- who competes in the South West Off Road Motocross Championship and is currently chairman of the Torridge and District Motorcycle Club- carries our logo and graphics on his bike and race clothing and we also contribute towards his race registration fees.

The Mitsubishi L200 is the pick-up of choice for Motocross riders- who find it the perfect vehicle for transporting themselves and their machinery to race venues so the sponsorship was always a perfect match. And Mark does all he can to spread the word at events- taking his van (emblazoned with Devonshire Motors logos) and setting up flags and banners.

He was a relatively late starter to the sport- initially channelling his energies into downhill mountain biking before realising his love for Motocross in his early twenties (a sport his Dad has been active in for many years) but has ambitions to complete all the rounds of the championships and aim for the top spot.


We're sure you'll all join us is wishing Mark the very best for what remains of the season. As a local business we are keen to do as much as we can to support the local community and Mark is a fantastic young rider- we are delighted to be in the position to continue to support him.
