Ken Roczen and Teka Manager Markus Bau Tour KTM Headquarters

Ken
Roczen, the impressive young German MX2 rider who joins the Red Bull
KTM Factory Team as of 2011, and the General Manager of Teka, a key
major sponsor of the team, traveled to KTM’s headquarters in
Mattighofen, Austria for a proper introduction to the orange world.

Roczen,
who sparked excitement and high expectations after finishing second
to Red Bull/KTM’s Marvin Musquin in the MX2 World Championship,
journeyed to the KTM headquarters to meet his new orange family and
talk about the upcoming season with KTM Racing boss Pit Beirer and
Factory Team Manager and 10X World Champion Stefan Everts.

The
state-of-the-art KTM Factory, which houses the KTM Racing and
Research and Development departments, was greeted by another special
guest when General Manager of Teka, Markus Bau came and visited. Bau
is excited to bring Teka onboard as a major sponsor of the Red
Bull/KTM Racing Team for 2011. Teka, an international company, that
specializes in high quality kitchen and bathroom ware both at a
domestic and professional level has had a close link to Roczen in
earlier seasons.

Pit
Beirer: “We very much welcome the opportunity to have Ken and
Markus with us in Mattighofen so that we can show them around and
introduce them to our extended team, all of which contribute to our
success on and off the track.”

Roczen,
who along with KTM’s Max Nagl, helped vault Team Germany onto the
MXoN podium in Lakewood, Colorado, will be racing in the U.S. AMA
Supercross Lites before returning to contest the MX2 World
Championship. Roczen and his teammate, Jeffrey Herlings, are two of
the youngest riders in the senior paddock and are expected to deliver
the most exciting track action this coming season.
