'Bout bl**dy time too    Jenny Tinmouth will become the first woman to race in the British Superbike championship Former SA Superbike champion Hudson Kennaugh will have a new team mate in the 2011 British Superbike series - a girl. His team, Splitlath Motorsport, has just signed Jenny Tinmouth, the first woman ever to compete in Britain's premier motorcycle championship. She and Kennaugh will ride Aprilia RSV4's with engines and technical assistance provided by the factory. Tinmouth has been racing at National level since she first entered the British 125cc championship in 2003 and finished a close third in the 2010 British Supersport Cup. She also became the first woman to win a British Supersport Cup race, set a new record for the fastest lap by a female competitor at the Isle of Man TT and won the final round of the British Endurance championship at Cadwell Park in November. “I'm over the moon, I still can't believe it,” she said. “My ambition has always been to race Superbikes and I've been trying to get a ride on one for some time.  This is Hudson Kennaugh's new team mate: Jenny Tinmouth, who finished third in the 2010 British Supersport Cup. .''After a couple of years in Supersport and a few TT rides, this is a natural progression for me, and it's wonderful to get the chance to do it. I'm incredibly grateful to John for giving me this opportunity and I'm looking forward to seeing what I can do on a Superbike.” Last week she began testing at Almeria in Spain with a 2010 machine. Team principal John Dimbylow said: “Jenny is a very talented rider and we were very interested after seeing her performance in 2010. “She's a proven race winner and is 100 percent committed to the season ahead. She certainly has the potential to be a very strong competitor in the British Superbike series. “Jenny will be the perfect team mate for Hudson and her arrival comes at the start of a very exciting time for the team. We are building a talented and strong crew and will be continuing our relationship with Aprilia after coming to an agreement to receive engines and assistance from Italy, and are looking forward to making our British Superbike debut with a bang in April.”
