Welcome to Gareth Jones Racing

Gareth Jones embarked on his official racing career in 2003 aged 16. Despite being the youngest rider in the class, he placed 2^nd in the Australian 250cc Production Championship.

Building on his first season, Gareth finished runner up in the 2004 National Superstock Cup, to his friend and fellow Superbike ace Brendon Roberts, currently riding for the Ducati Xerox team in Europe this year.

In 2005, at the age of 18, Gareth was awarded the inaugural Reece Bancell Scholarship and became the first superstock rider to place in the Top 10 of the Australian Supersport Championship in his first year.

Gareth completed three successful seasons as a privateer in the Australian Supersport Championship culminating in 7^th place overall in 2007, in a field dominated by factory teams.

In January 2008 Gareth earned his first works sponsored ride with the Brian Bernard Yamaha Team in the New Zealand Superbike Championship.

Gareth placed 3^rd overall in the five race New Zealand Superbike series and in addition won the “King of the Streets” title, winning all three Superbike races at the Paeroa street circuit, setting a new lap record in the process. In addition he finished 2nd at the famous Wanganui Cemetery Circuit (the southern hemisphere’s Isle of Man). This was particularly remarkable because Gareth was riding a 600cc Supersport bike against his opponents 1000cc Superbikes.

The beginning of something new...

Gareth has just finished an arduous season on the European tracks, competing for MIST Suzuki on a GSXR1000, in the FIM European Superstock Championships, as part of the World Superbike tour. He finished 18th overall and 2nd Privateer. Gareth is now in New Zealand competing in his second season in the New Zealand Superbikes on a Bernard Racing Yamaha.
