Hydrex Honda have finally done the double as both team boss Shaun Muir and rider Stuart Easton became fathers within hours of each other. Shaun's wife Nicole gave birth to Jamie at 9.22pm last night and Stuart's better half Claire gave birth to Finlay at 2.33am this morning.
Jamie Denerly-Muir took the chequered flag a full three weeks before he should have, weighing in at five pounds and eight ounces while Finlay went the full race distance to pop out at six pounds nine ounces, which is already heavier than his dad. Why this is important, this reporter will never know, but apparently it is good for coo-ing purposes...
All mothers and babies are reportedly doing well and www.bikesportnews.com would like to give our congratulations to all concerned.
