As you probably already know, Louann and I are preparing to take the ride of our lives, the 2011 Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge. It's an undertaking of enormous proportions, and we are beginning to feel the excitement build as we guard from becoming overwhelmed by it all.
Last week we received our welcome packets, I can't tell you how exciting that was! We now have our official rider numbers, which will be imprinted on the challenge coin that we must keep in our pockets at all times during the ride. We also received our tracking devices which will soon be hard-wired onto our bikes so we can be tracked, live every 10 seconds while riding and every 30 minutes while stopped.
We also have been contacted by a couple of the companies that we asked for sponsorship from - one of them is T-Bags, we really love T-Bags motorcycle luggage, have used them for years and years so we are very happy that they are sending us two of their very best touring bags and some T-Shirts. We'll proudly wear the shirts and hopefully get into some photo opportunities with them. We will also have patches on our bags to display. Another company is Ride-On Tire Protection System, this product looks really, really cool and it could end up saving us from having to quit the ride early. It works in tubed and un-tubed tires.
It's really comforting to know there are companies that are not afraid to sponsor a couple of women in such a challenging event. We are to be Hoka Hey warriors afterall, I commend them and suggest you visit their websites to see what they have to offer!
