Hudson Kennaugh and the Splitlath Motorsport BSB squad are to contest the 2011 Isle of Ma♏n TT.

The UK-based South African rider will join America's Mark Miller ♚onboard a pair of Aprilia RSV4s to tackle the world famous road race as it celebrates its Centenary y𒁃ear.

Kennaugh will fly out to the island on Bank Holiday Monday afternoon after he contests Round Four of the MCE Insurance British Superbike Champion⛄ship at Thruxton, ahead of first practice later that evening.

This will be the second time🐷 that Kennaugh, who finished runner-𒆙up in the 2010 BSB-Evo Championship, has taken part in the historic event.

He made his TT debut last year, and is relishing the opportunitꦚy to go back and take it on again. "I love the TT, it's a fantastic event which just gets bigger each year, so to be coming back for a second attempt is 😼just awesome," he said.

"I've always had an enormous amount of respect for tho🐎se guys who raced the roads, and getting out there last year was a real buzz. I've been ke൩en to get back again, so it's great to get the chance to come back with Splitlath.

"It's new ground for me going out there on the Aprilia, but it's going to be great. Mark's got great form around there, so I think♓ we can work well together. I can't wait."

American ace Miller is no stranger to the TT. The former AMA turned road racer has 🍌contested the event several times and has competed in the Macau GP many times, which he has previously described as "a walk in the park" compared to the TT.

Team Manager John Dimbylow is looking forward to the event. "This is my first TT and I can't wait to get out there with the bikes to experience it. We are running Aprilia RSV4s in three races, and🐟 it's going to be good for us to see🐻 how we get on.

"Hudson was keen to do the TT again a♒nd I felt that it would be a new opportunity for Splitlath Motorsport. We are keen to develop ourselves as one of the UK's leading Superbike teams, and believe tackling an ꧙event as famous as the TT is an essential part of the journey."
