Though most of us have all the great gear and skills we have learned from the training programs we offer, we still don’t want to put our fellow pilots at risk during the “off-season”. But with the temperatures reaching the 70’s today we went ahead and put together a employee and race team ride this morning, spur of the moment, just so we could blast past your house and wake you up to the sound of motorcycle noise rippin’ down the street. Nothing more motivating then waking up in the paddock rooms above VIR and hearing the expert liter bikes racing down the straight at 160+ miles per hour. This was the next best thing we could think of doing for our community this morning. Keep in close contact with us as the season is upon us to start taking our weekly Sunday Rides with Nate and Frontline Eurosports.

Starting from Rome, the route enters the heart of the Italian Apennines along wind-ing, scenic, desolate roads that cut through these razor-sharp mountains, the "backbone" of southern Italy. Stop in Montecassino, scenery of one of the most famous battles of the Second World War and seat of one of the most famous abbeys in the world, before continuing towards Basilicata. The New York Times defines it as "the most guarded secret garden in Italy, revered for its beautiful beaches and ancient cities, to be visited before the world discovers it".

It will be a huge improvement in consistency in my being there and letting people know when and where in advance to pre-plan their weekend activities with family and the type of ride they aspire to take with us. The Sunday Rides will now be twice a month, the first being an Adventure Sunday Ride on the 1st Sunday of every month, then we will do a Street Sunday Ride later in the month. The Street Sunday Ride will rotate from a SHORT Sunday Ride one month to a LONG Sunday Ride the next, and continue to switch from month to month.....But don't worry if you lose track of which month we are on, there is going to be an annual calendar released in this edition and posted on our upcoming events section on the website to ensure you know what time we are departing and what our destination is. Our Adventure Sunday Rides will be for dual sport and adventure touring motorcycles and almost all conditions we encounter will be for individuals on stock tires, your skill level will dictate your comfort in some situations.

This event is only one week long and will include all 2015 and prior BMW Motorrad, Triumph Motorcycles, and even our new Ducati line of Motorcycles!!! So here is the big scoop. For these days alone we will be offering employee pricing on all in-stock ’15 and prior units!!! There will still be a Set-Up and Destination Fee associated with the sale and you are still required to pay all Tax, Title, Tag, and Doc. Fees when applicable. You can still finance these machines as you normally would and the BMW Motorrad line will still qualify for the amazing Easy Ride Program, which if you took advantage of these two opportunities together you would have a smokin’ payment, so it’s definetly worth looking into with us this week. *Deal only good from Dec. 8th through Dec. 12th 2015 on in stock motorcycle. Employee Cost plus Set-up and Freight (BMW & Triumph $495 freight and $250 set-up; Ducati $595 freight and $295 set-up).
