First off this week, a few more pictures from our Track Attack with Bridgestone in March. Jonnie is working through the 800+ images we have from the day, in order that we can provide a souvenir of the event for all who took part. Please bear with us!
Track Event 4 - Friday 6th June, at Oulton Park, with Avon.
We have now contacted all of the 45 guest riders who will be joining us for the next event of our 2008 Track Day season. With almost twice the number of rider slots applied for, we had to do some serious shuffling and have tried to give preference to customers who haven't enjoyed a Track Experience with us before.
This means that we have had to disappoint some people, and we're very sorry about that. There is a stand-by list, and if anyone drops out, we'll contact people in order of date of application immediately.
Joining Packs are in the post, including details of an extra special offer on Avon VIPER EXTREME Track Day product, and the lucky winners of the competition held during EXPO in January, will shortly receive their free of charge AV61/62 sets, to use on the day!
To celebrate the launch of their new Hypersport rubber, BT-016, Bridgestone have created a fabulous two-tier package for a group of lucky customers, who will be able to experience the excitement of MotoGP at Donington Park on Sunday 22nd June 2008 as guests of the UK Market Leader!
Here we have an opportunity to say "thank you" for showing growth in purchases of Bridgestone product, to include an element of BT-016, and we’ll select four couples to enjoy a VIP-Plus hospitality package. This will include invitations to the Bridgestone suite, overlooking the main straight away from the start line, also a gourmet lunch and snacks throughout the day, plus various paddock-side thrills that only Bridgestone can provide!
Also, by no means a runner-up prize, available against the same purchase growth pattern in 2008, are ten grandstand tickets. These include circuit entry and stand seats, for a fantastic view of the racing in comfort and style, courtesy of the world's leading motorcycle tyre manufacturer! Unbeatable!
The guest selection process for the Grandstand and VIP-Plus MotoGP invitations will happen at the end of May so, as the weather finally improves, this is the time to put Battlax into stock, when every purchase counts towards each dealer's chance to "go MotoGP" with Bridgestone and Bike Tyrestore.
And - Triple Points on BT-014 (non OE-fitments) continues in Moto-Vate, as if another reason was needed!
Two Wheel tyre prices continue to fluctuate, upwards more often than downwards! Catalogues and price lists can't be relied on but "YOUR Online Warehouse" from Bike Tyrestore can!
In YOUR Online Warehouse, customers can trade with us 24/7, see our live stock and their own unique cost prices. There's no charge for the service, which more and more dealers are relying on and continuing to sell tyres even on Sundays, when we're not available. It's the "way forward" and access can be set up for any Bike Tyrestore customer in 24 hours after we receive a registration form, which takes just a few minutes to complete.
"Just a few minutes" to secure complete pricing confidence and the ability to treat our massive stock of bike tyres as your own warehouse, calling in supplies for next day delivery!
To register, please go www.worldofbiketyres.com and "YOUR Online Warehouse", then send your request using the contact link. Or, just call the CSA team on 0800 281 413 and leave it to us. That's a free call of course.
Unfortunately, we don't have an image available to show here but, from Bibendum, we've got a brilliant Championship aid for MotoGP fans.
This is a massive wall chart with team details, circuit map and information for each of the eighteen 2008 race events. Also shown are the 2007 pole and podium positions, and there is space to enter this year's results, providing a complete record of the premier class season!
Looking great in the showroom, or at home, of course they are free of charge, with Michelin's compliments!
Call the CSA team free on 0800 281 413, or catch Traci when she calls in, to grab your MotoGP Planner before the next race at Shanghai on 4th May.

BERTIE SIMMONDS RIDES BT-016 AT JEREZ!
"From the horse's mouth"!
Bertie is one of the UK's best respected bike journos and his review of Bridgestone's BT-016 can be read in full at the "News" page in our website www.worldofbiketyres.com
Here are just a few comments, which say it all!
"If you're a tech-head, you'll love the BT-016's."
"Progressive grip performance, sporty handling, good longevity, excellent high and low speed stability."
"The first thing that impresses is how quick these tyres are to warm up."
"Side grip is exceptional"
"No dramas, no problems, lovely."
"The Bridgestone's aren't just tyres, they're excellent performance add-ons for your bike."
(Thanks to Visordown.com and TWO magazine).
Pilot Road 2 has been put to the test once more and the result of the latest comparative testing, together with an update on Michelin's Two Compound Technology, can be read on the News page in www.worldofbiketyres.com.

Price increase alert! 1st June 2008, an increase of 4.2%
Last weekend, we were with Jax Motorcycles in York to support their Open Weekend which, despite unhelpful weather, was a great success with lots of visitors keen to talk tyres and ask questions of our experts. As usual, we gave away a load of freebies, including something we'd rather not mention from Metzeler! Let's just say, we thought they were visor wipes, but no!
This Saturday, we're off to Poole and an Open Day with another major customer, The Gearbox.
