He was out of a ride at the start of 1999, and considered returning to cabinet-making,[3] but he joined WCM mid-season, and finished third at Valencia Grand Prix, though his best result elsewhere was seventh.

2000 was a breakout season for Garry with WCM, as he opened the year with a shock win at the South African Grand Prix at Welkom.

[4][5] 2001 was ruined by a broken wrist sustained at the French Grand Prix, and 2002 was not a huge success either, resulting in him joining Kawasaki's factory team.

This was hugely disappointing; McCoy only scored points three times, and he and teammates Andrew Pitt and Alex Hofmann rarely qualified in the top 15.

A huge crash at Brno when he struck the slowing bike of one-time teammate Andrew Pitt threatened to end his season[12] In 2009 at the Donington circuit McCoy scored the first podium for Triumph with 3rd place.

However the team failed to get its three-cylinder 800cc project into competitive shape and on 7 June 2010 McCoy announced their contract had been terminated by mutual consent.
