  Edinburgh Monarchs

We can now confirm that all the Scotwaste Monarchs have arrived safely in this country ready for the start of the 2014 season.

Justin Sedgmen was the last to arrive, flying into the UK on Thursday. He's preparing for the season at his former base in Swindon before he travels up to Scotland on Saturday. He reports that all is going well in his preparations and he can't wait to resume his UK career.

Two of our riders took the opportunity to get some practice in during this glorious summer weather. Skipper, Derek Sneddon spent the whole weekend at Scunthorpe and was very satisfied with his efforts by the end of the day on Sunday.

Aaron Fox travelled down on Sunday and, initially, had problems with the set up of his bike. However, he, eventually, ironed everything out and put in some useful laps at the Edie Wright Raceway. For the moment for Aaron it's all about getting as many laps as possible as he settles in to UK conditions.
