MotoPR to handle public relations and marketing efforts

HOUSTON (January 15, 2008) – The new Shea Supermoto Racing Team is pleased to announce that DNA Energy Drink has signed on as the title sponsor of its AMA Supermoto Lites effort. The team consists of team owner/rider Tim Shea, Thomas Bordelon, and Mike Ingle. Recently, it also selected Moto Public Relations (MotoPR) as its public relations and marketing agency.

“We are very excited about the upcoming 2008 season,” said Tim Shea, owner and team rider. ”Everything is coming together for our team. Thanks to Darren and Geoff at DNA Energy Drink for their major support, and also a big thanks to Bryan Peckinpaugh of MotoPR. His firm has been working non-stop to help build our team.”

The three team riders take their motocross talents to the AMA Supermoto Series. Shea won his class at the 2007 White Brothers Amateur Vet World Championships in Texas. Bordelon raced the Texas round of the AMA Supermoto Series last year as a Pro Am with lap times on par with the AMA Supermoto premier class. Ingle raced the infamous Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, finishing sixth in the 450cc motorcycle class in 2007. The team’s goal is to have all three riders in the top ten in the Lites class this season. It has purchased a 40-foot transporter that provides exposure for sponsors and will serve as team headquarters during the race weekends.

Partnering with DNA Energy Drink, the Houston, Texas-based Shea Supermoto Racing will have fan promotions at every round leading up to a final race drawing that includes a pit bike outfitted with team graphics as the grand prize. More information on the team can be found at www.sheasupermoto.com.

MotoPR is providing the team with the structure and expertise to have an integrated public relations and marketing effort to market sponsorships and provide publicity for team members and sponsors.

MotoPR’s Peckinpaugh added, “Tim Shea and Team DNA Energy Drink/Shea Supermoto Racing are making a major effort to participate in AMA Supermoto, especially as a first-year team. We are thrilled to be working with them.”

Team DNA Energy Drink/Shea Supermoto Racing has race and practice bike, presenting, and associate sponsorships available. You can learn more about the team and available sponsorships by contacting Bryan Peckinpaugh with MotoPR at (313) 575-1245 or bryan@motopr.com.

Hardware: Supermoto Wheels Explained

Supermoto wheels are a big investment, when you factor that your 2-3 year old dirt bike may have a resale value in dirt form in the $4-5K range, if that. We get calls from guys all the time who say "well, I'm not really racing or nothing, so I'm just looking for the cheapest wheels you have to convert to Supermoto". Well, the real reply there is that there really isn't a cheap way to get into Supermoto unless you're going to go Sportsman about it and ride on knobbies or some type of dual-sport tire. Quality 17-inch supermoto wheels that will last are going to set you back between $800 and $2000 depending on how deep you're going to go at this and whether you want quality and performance or just a good price. Motostrano is a full scale supermoto specialist and we've been involved in Supermoto since it's re-birth in the United States in 2002. We offer complete supermoto wheels made from the finest materials and built by experience wheel builders

Riding the Moustache Samedi 27 2X Tandem Electric Bike

I love riding with my partner and riding by tandem is one of my favorite ways to get around on a Sunday. Touring by tandem is literally twice as fun as riding solo,when you are on a bike with the one you love and the one that loves you. But tandem bikes are rare and excellent electric tandem bikes are even rarer, so I wanted to give you a fresh impression of our ride yesterday on the 2018 MOUSTACHE Samedi 27 X2 tandem . Moustache is a French company, making some of the most innovative ebikes in the world. Their tandem is no exception. This bike comes in two build types, either a smooth tire touring type or a knobby tire off-road type, but the frames, motors and other specs are pretty much the same.  I've ridden tandems for the past few years on road and off road. Yesterday we did a Meet-Up ride with other fellow ebikers in the Sonoma area. Naturally we were the only tandem riders, with others riding solo on their Haibikes, KTM, Giant, Felt and Blix bikes. Out and

Bust Your Commute at Motostrano.com

If you live in the Bay Area, "getting around" is a constant thing to be reconciled with in your daily life. But, unlike other parts of the country where cars dominate completely and your only choice is to grin and bear it, you have countless alternate transportation solutions to help you differentiate from the crowd, go against the stream instead of with it, get un-stuck from traffic and benefit from health upsides as a result. Never before has there been such a wide variety of commuter-focused "personal transportation devices" available to you and the Bay Area is as usual a testing ground for all kinds of creative solutions to help you get from A to B.  Motostrano is the store at the center of all these alternative commuting solutions and we have been for almost 20 years now. Since 2002, a big part of Motostrano's focus has been about busting your commute. In the beginning it was motorcycles and in 2009 we migrated to bicycles and specifically  electric bicy
