“They went to Wheeldon in Devon where they had an indoor supercross track, and there they spent three full days riding with other riders who had entered, including professionals Carl Nunn and Tom Church.”
After their practice sessions the schoolboys headed around the country, riding at the O2 Arena in London, the Odyssey Arena in Belfast, Birmingham’s LG Arena and the last round was held at the Echo Arena in Liverpool.
And they did themselves proud, Daniel finishing seventh overlal and Luke 10th.

On their return to the UK they entered the final round of the Whiterose Winter Championship in Doncaster, where Daniel placed fourth, and brother Luke finished second.
Kaye added: “It was their best results yet.”
