Said Stead: “I’ve got to include Kyle and Josh because they are true entertainers. Sometimes as a team manager I wish they would ride in a more easy, simple way but they always give it everything they’ve got on the bike and fans love them.
“They’re great additions to my meeting and I know they get stuck in, they won’t mind the fact they are up against the best riders in the world. They’ll see it as a challenge.
“It’s a big season for both lads this year because they are ready to take a step up another level, they are capable of increasing their average.

Stead added: “Workington were looking at using Kyle and other clubs were asking about Josh but I’m glad we kept them and they’ve got a big part to play in our season. I’m really pleased to have them in my meeting.”
