Suzuki and AMA to give
away two new motorcycles at 2008 events
PICKERINGTON,
Ohio - Both road and off-road riders who attend some of the most popular
and distinctive American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) events in 2008
will have more than a good time--they'll have the chance to win two new
Suzuki motorcycles.
The AMA
and American Suzuki Motor Corporation are pleased to announce that two
new motorcycles will be given away as part of Suzuki's three-year title
sponsorship for the AMA Suzuki Signature Events series and the AMA
Suzuki National Dual Sport Trail Ride Series.
Several
lucky riders have already won a Suzuki DR-Z400S in recent years in the
annual Ride and Win™ drawing that is part of the National Dual Sport
series. Now in its 15th year with Suzuki sponsorship, this popular
series highlights some of the finest and most challenging dual-sport
rides across the country. These multi-day rides pit the participants'
skills against the terrain and the elements over courses that can be as
long as 500 miles.
"Since
Suzuki began its partnership with the AMA, we've more than doubled the
number of events," said AMA Road Riding Manager Dave Hembroff.
"The Suzuki name has become synonymous with this type of riding,
and every rider who participates in the AMA Suzuki National Dual Sport
Trail Ride Series is eligible to win the DR-Z."
On the
road-riding side, Suzuki has stepped up to sponsor the AMA Suzuki
Signature Events that are part of the AMA Premier Touring Series, and
one lucky participant will win a new Suzuki streetbike in 2008.
"AMA
Suzuki Signature Events are a collection of unique, high-profile
road-riding events," said Hembroff.. "Thousands of riders plan
their entire season around them." Events for 2008 include Arizona
Bike Week, the Republic of Texas Rally, the Killington Classic and Las
Vegas Bike Fest.
"We
only select 10 events a year for this series, including up to two
high-profile charity rides," said Hembroff. For 2008, the Divas for
a Cure organization's Real Divas Ride for breast cancer awareness will
be one of those charity events.
As in
the Suzuki National Dual Sport Series, participants at Suzuki Signature
Events will be able to enter to win a 2008 Suzuki motorcycle.
"AMA
Recreational Riding is proud that American Suzuki has committed to these
two great series for the next three seasons," Hembroff said.
"With such a wide range of quality motorcycles, Suzuki has a bike
for every kind of rider."
