Pepson Plastics Racing Kawasaki with Motul and Michelin enjoyed the perfect start to its 2025 Gauteng GXCC Cross Country Series season with a cracking performance at the Rysmierbult season opener on Saturday.
“Now that’s the way to open a new season!” Pepson Plastics Kawasaki team boss Iain Pepper explained. “We won three of the five classes we entered and the lads enjoyed a brilliant day in the saddle all around, our Kawasakis ran like clockwork and the entire team simply clicked back into action after the off-season.”
Fourth overall, Cameron Becker rode his Pepson Plastics Kawasaki KX250X to a compelling OR3 class victory. Pepson Plastics Kawasaki Masters King Pieter Holl kicked off his championship defence with a dominant class victory riding his familiar Pepson Plastics Kawasaki KX450X. And young Jake Pretorius started his 2025 season with an OR4 victory on his Pepson Plastics Kawasaki KX250X.
“Congratulations also to the rest of the Pepson Plastics Kawasaki guys. To our team riders, Wian Wentzel, who was fourth in his OR1 debut and Jaycee Nienaber who had a steady run to seventh in OR1, Jayden Boyce seventh in OR3 Pro Am and last year’s 85cc South African champion Derek van Aswegen eighth on debut in OR3.
Also to the rest of our brilliant team, well done one and all. “What more can I say than to congratulate our three winners and the rest of the team on an incredible performance, well done one and all,” Pepper concluded. “All the hard work, especially over the off-season has paid off handsomely and Pepson Plastics Kawasaki has started the 2025 season in perfect winning style!
