A BSB veteran with a terrible injury has finally returned to riding a bike
“First time I’ve ridden a bike since September!"
A British Superbike Championship veteran has finally made his welcome return to riding a motorcycle.
Christian Iddon has posted images to social media of himself on a Kawasaki.
“Some fun out on the bikes,” he wrote.
“First time I’ve ridden a bike since September! Safe to say the KX is run in.
“Might have roofed her once or twice…”
A crash in Race 3 of the BSB round at Donington Park caused a serious injury, and ruled Iddon out of the rest of the 2024 season.
The clash with Jason O’Halloran, whose place he will now take on a Kawasaki this year, “caused far more substantial damage than was feared and I now require a pretty comprehensive foot reconstruction”, Iddon clarified last year.
Iddon has left the Moto Rapido Ducati team, where he spent the past two years, to join the rebranded FS-3 Kawasaki team in 2025.
Iddon, who debuted in BSB 15 years ago and has won four of his 275 races in the class, must adapt to the ZX-10RR this year.
