THE world’s fastest female motorcycle racer Jenny Tinmouth is doing it for the girls this season as she becomes the first woman to line up on the British Superbike Championship (BSB) grid full-time.

Tinmouth, 31, of Ellesmere Port, will step up to the world’s toughest motorcycle racing series for the Splitlath Motorsport team when the 2011 campaign gets under way at Brands Hatch on Easter weekend (April 22-25).

After finishing a close third in the 2010 British Supersport Cup, she will now fulfil her dream of racing a Superbike and is ready to push her male counterparts all the way.

“I’m over the moon to be in BSB this year and I still can’t believe it,” she said. “My ambition has always been to race in BSB; I’ve been trying for some time and I think all my hard work over the past seasons has finally paid off.”

Tinmouth has worked her way up to BSB from national level since 2003 when she raced in the British 125GP Championship, proving to be consistently quick and has already made history by becoming the fastest woman around the daunting Isle of Man TT circuit, lapping at an incredible average speed of 119.945mph.

She added: “I know it will be a massive learning curve but hopefully people will see that girls can race too and then more will see it is possible to get into racing too if you work hard enough at it.”
