Sunday the 7th of January 2007 by jitsie

JITSIE is pleased to announce the signing of Bruce Leriche who will join the rest of the JITSIE team for 2007. Last year’s number three in the AMA outdoor trials championship will also switch to Gas Gas and is considered as one of the main title contenders for next season in the American outdoor championship.

Bruce commented on signing with JITSIE: “I am really happy to join the JITSIE team. They have created a really cool brand with products that stand out from the crowd. Their new T1 gear looks great and I really look forward to riding in it. I have a very clear goal next season: winning the AMA trials championship. With the support from JITSIE and my other sponsors I feel really motivated to get that title.”

Jan Cardinaels, founder and owner of the JITSIE brand, comments: “The American trials market is a growing market for the JITSIE brand and the signing of Bruce le Riche is really good for us to support the brand. We had been looking intensively for a good rider in the US and Bruce was recommended to us by a lot of the leading industry people. He is talented, works hard and is focussed on his goals; these are exactly the qualities we look for in signing athletes. He definitely has a shot at the title in ‘07 and we hope he can succeed. For sure he can count on our support!”

Bruce will make his official outing with the JITSIE T1 trials gear starting from the 1st of January 2007. He’s also training and giving courses at the Trials Training Center in Sequatchie, Tennessee (http://www.trialstrainingcenter.com).
