From a press release issued by Coors Light Racing Blackfoot Team Suzuki:

Coors Light Racing Blackfoot Team Suzuki is proud to welcome back 2002 600 Sport Bike Champion Clint McBain, new-comer Kevin Lacombe from Eastern Canada and 2003 HJC Pro Rookie of the Year, Matt Binns. Nathan Naslund of Suzuki Canada is proud to introduce this all-Canadian Team, Coors Light Racing Blackfoot Team Suzuki will be a top contender for both 600 and Superbike Championships in 2005.

Clint McBain finished Third in 600 Sport Bike and Fourth in Superbike last year and is looking forward to capitalizing on his experiences in 2004.

“I feel really good this year, we had a great year last year from a development standpoint,” said McBain. Moving forward to 2005, I’m looking forward to a continued relationship with a professional team and excellent group of riders.”

The Team would like to thank James Danyluk specifically from Parts Canada for their continued support in 2005. “We are extremely happy to have a phenomenal group of sponsors behind us,” affirms Team Manager Patrick Chambers “Thank you to each of our Team Sponsors.”

Kevin Lacombe began his road racing career at Shannonville Motorsport Park, which interestingly was where he won his first National Superbike race. 21 year-old Quebec native, Lacombe remembers being the “youngest rider in road-racing” on a Suzuki, participating in the ASM and RACE series (Quebec and Ontario). Coors Light Racing Blackfoot Team Suzuki is pleased to have Kevin join the Team for 2005.

To complete the Team, “Young Gun” Matt Binns from Uxbridge, Ontario will race the Suzuki GSX-R600. Matt will prove to be a great addition to the team and we’re happy to have him on-board.
