Nick Kemp - PR Assistant
s a brand we are always eager to support our employees in all aspects of their life , some of which may even fall outside of the workplace . Recently , we decided to enter the unique world of motor racing through one of our team members . Our International Sales Support Nancy Detournay , who hails from Belgium , currently races in the sport of classic motorcycle racing . Nancy has been in the sport for 17 years now , during that time she has been a British Champion a whopping five times , and crowned Belgian Champion twice .
When racing as part of a team , finance and sponsorship is crucial , a team cannot function without much needed funds . The marketing team at iCandy wanted to support Nancy , and decided to sponsor her racing team , this also allowed the brand of iCandy to participate on a great European adventure .
This is a quick roundup of Nancy and her race partner David ’ s latest season , written in the words of Nancy herself . “ Our season started on the Easter weekend at Pembrey , where we had four races planned . After a long winter , it is always good to get going again , and the day started with two good practices . It was a solid start to the season , we managed to secure three victories and a 4th place finish .
A terrific opening weekend effort , especially as the elements are challenging throughout as we face both wet and dry track conditions .
