New Zealand native Avalon Biddle is to make the move into the FIM Supersport 300 World Championship with Sourz Foods – Benjan Racing Team with one goal on her mind – fighting for the title.

Experienced within the WorldSBK paddock, Biddle has spent two seasons taking the European Women’s Cup by storm and is ready to make the next step, as one of two female racers in the whole Superbike World Championship for 2017.

Joining the experienced Dutch team, Biddle will take on the new class aboard a Kawasaki Ninja 300 and with experience around the European circuits the 24 year old hopes to bring the fight to the front of the pack.

Biddle expresses her joy ahead of the season: "The new Supersport 300 class is going to produce very close racing and I'm looking forward to working with Benjan Racing and getting my elbows out amongst the action - fighting for that World Championship title. It is the perfect place to showcase Sourz Foods who are making this possible and also all my personal sponsors, especially MTF Vehicle Finance. I'm really grateful that we have been able to collaborate. Racing a Kawasaki ZX6R Supersport bike over past couple of months here in New Zealand means I have been able to stay race fit over the European winter and I think that is a nice advantage. It gives me great confidence heading back in Europe to ride the Ninja 300 with this amazing team. I'm sure that together we will be competitive in 2017!"
