Hi! 

This is mailing to anyone coming to the Valencia MotoGP.  Sorry to bother you if you won't be there.... (and call us +44 191 406 6260 f you want to organise a last minute trip to the event - we can get something together!)

1/ CHARITY PARTY

Friday night we have our super opening party. We are hoping anyone we know in Valncia will consider attending to have a great time, meet cool people and buy some unique stuff & experiences (such as signed Rossi helmet similar to that shown) to raise much-needed funds for the charities:  Riders for Health and Down Syndrome Ireland.

We will be welcoming the BBC and actor DANNY JOHN-JULES ("Cat" from Red Dwarf) who is coming down on a madcap ride on 125cc motorbikes on a £125 per person budget, in support of Riders for Health.

We will also be joined by another barmy group riding from Ireland, from Valentia Island to Valencia, in support of Down Syndrome Ireland. They will be joined by an airborne invasion led by Irish road racing superstar RYAN FARQUHAR.

And if that isn't enough, riders such as JAMES ELLISON, DANNY WEBB, CAL CRUTCHLOW, ANT WEST and more will be making appearances (as always subject to the day at the track) along with other special guests.

But while you are working your way through the unlimited beer, wine and great buffet; you will be invited to bid on some amazing auction items, all proceeds going to charity.  See the partial list below!

It all happens at the Novotel Valencia Palacio de Congresos with doors opening 19:00 for roughly 19:30 programme start.  The cost is just €55 if booked in advance (€60 at door, space permitting)

2/ PHOTO OFFER

One of the very talented photographers we have had the honour to work with over the years is California-based Andrew Wheeler. He has made a very special offer just to our customers of 4 18x12 (aka A3) matte or glossy prints for $225 U$ paid via PayPal and he will deliver in Valencia. Bring them to the party (or take delivery there) and we will get them signed!
