Emile Mattheeuws exchanges Sherco for GasGas
Belgian Inters vice-champion trial Emile Mattheeuws (Oedelem) switches to GasGas after a long collaboration with Sherco. The new GasGas shows its ambitions not only in motocross but also in trials. Mattheeuws receives the support of a brand new GasGas dealer Leon Sagaert by Xavier Beel. Another step in the right direction for the young West Flemish!
Despite the corona crisis and the associated mandatory stop of the trial competition, father Mario Mattheeuws started looking for a new partner for Emile. After much deliberation, it was decided to work with GASGAS from this year onwards. Close to home, they can count on the know-how and support of Xavier Beel from Meulebeke. Trial specialist Jitsie will also remain on board for further support.
The trial is looking forward to - let us hope - a restart of the competition in September. The 21-year-old Mattheeuws is aiming for a podium place again this year at the inters in the Belgian Championship. He also wants to get a taste of some TrialGP competitions and major international competitions with a wildcard. Emil's club KAMCE is of course also excited about this exciting new chapter in Emile's motorsport career.
