Bruce Anstey Returns To Competition
D
ouble cancer survivor Bruce
Anstey will return to racing
competition at the Isle of Man
during next month's Classic TT
event.
The popular New Zealander
hasn't raced since the 2017
event with the subsequent two
years seeing him absent due to
cancer that consisted of multiple
tumors in his lungs, a tumor on
his spine and a blood clot on the
lung, but with that now behind
him, he'll make a return with his
regular Milenco by Padgetts Mo-
torcycles team riding a RS250
Honda in the four-lap Dunlop
Lightweight Classic TT Race.
Anstey has won no less than
13 races at the Isle of Man TT,
but he's also been
one of the most
successful riders at
the Classic TT since
it was first intro-
duced in 2013. His
six podiums—which
have come in the
Senior, Lightweight
and Superbike
classes—is the joint
highest total, a fig-
ure he shares with
Ian Lougher and Lee
Johnston.
Included in those six podiums
are three wins with his first vic-
tory coming in the 2014 Su-
perbike Classic TT Race riding
Padgetts 500cc YZR Yamaha.
Three years later he set the cur-
rent lap record in the class with a
speed of 127.496 mph, finishing
second to Dean Harrison. That
year also saw him claim his first
win in the Lightweight Classic TT
class. CN

Mosiman, Wilson Re-Sign With Rockstar
Energy Husqvarna
M
ichael Mosiman and Dean Wilson have officially extended their relationships with the Bobby
Hewitt-run Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Team. Mosiman, who turned pro in 2017, will remain with
the team through 2021. Wilson's deal sees him continuing on with the squad through 2020.
"I'm excited about having Michael Mosiman on the team for another two years!" said Hewitt via
Instagram. "I've known Mosiman and his family for many years. I can remember Michael coming to
the race rig when he was just tall enough to see over
the skirts, asking if he could come in and see inside
the race rig. Now, years later, he has his own section
of the race rig to hang out!"
Wilson said via Instagram: "So stoked to an-
nounce that I will be staying with the Rockstar Energy
Husqvarna racing team for the 2020 season. Thank
you everyone involved. I am very happy and grateful
for another great year with these guys." CN
Michael Mosiman signed a two-year extension
