Manx motorcycling ace Conor Cummins has been signed by McAdoo Racing to compete at the international road races next year.
The 22-year-old Ramsey rider, who won the Duke Road Race Ranking championship in 2007, will race at the North West 200, Isle of Man TT and Ulster Grand Prix.
McAdoo are supplying Conor with five Kawasaki machines; two Superbikes, two Supersport 600s and a Superstock 1000cc bike for the campaign.
During a brief stint with the team this season he managed two thirds and a fourth at the Southern 100 and was due to ride at the Ulster before torrential rain put paid to the event.
