Alpine Bikes become World Cup official retail part

By: Alan on 27th March, 2008

Alpine Bikes are delighted to announce their partnership with the Nissan UCI Mountain Bike World Cup in Fort William as official retail partner. The Mountain Bike World Cup is the largest mountain bike event in Scotland and last year attracted over 746 competitors from 47 nations, not forgetting the 40,000 spectators.

This multi award winning global event, synonymous with big name riders and even bigger courses, is a multi disciplined affair and encompasses Cross Country, Downhill and 4 Cross. Over the course of the three days, spectators can expect to be thrilled, inspired and awed by some sensational and daring riding in one of mountain biking’s most picturesque venues.

Event Director, Mike Jardine, commented ‘The Fort William World Cup is all about bikes, so it’s great to have such an active and dynamic retailer supporting the UK’s premiere bike event. Alpine Bikes will manage the Alpine Bike Park for spectators who ride to the event, providing on-site servicing support and advice in the midst of all the racing action. This is a great service for the many thousands of visitors and helps to promote a sustainable transport option for the World Cup.’

Bryan Shedden, General Manager of Alpine Bikes, added: ‘We are very excited at being official retail partner to such a prestigious event. I believe that Alpine Bikes will be able to add real value to the event by lending our own expertise to the competitors through the provision of our mechanics and a bike park. Hopefully we will see our own sponsored rider, Fergus Lamb, competing as well!’.

Alpine Bikes, Scotland’s largest independent bike retailer, will also be on hand with the latest in mountain bike clothing as well as a great selection of big brand bikes from the likes of Ironhorse, Intense and Trek.

Beaumonts new ride

By: Alan on 23rd March, 2008

Scott Beaumont agrees initial one year deal with RDH Motorhomes.

The number 13 is unlucky for some, but on the 13th February, Scott Beaumont agreed a one year deal with RDH Motorhome Centre. Scott is joining Tommy Searle (Motocross World Number 2) and Chris Walker (World Super sports rider) as part of the RDH race team for 2008.

RDH Motorhome Centre sells motorhomes from their base near Mansfield and specialise in motorhomes with garages to accommodate bikes, quads, go-karts etc. Their passion has always been motor sport, but 2008 sees them taking a slightly different direction with their support of Scott Beaumont who competes in the World Cup Mountain Bike Series.

RDH will be providing Scott with a Burstner 747-2 motorhome for the 2008 season.

Richard Wood - Director of RDH said: We're delighted to be making our first move into the bicycle market by sponsoring Scott. It's a good commercial decision for us, but more than that, we love to get involved in sports that we enjoy ourselves. Play time after work often involves mountain bikes, but a few lessons from Scott probably wouldn't go a miss!

Scott Beaumont - I am really happy to have agreed a deal with RDH. The Burstner 747 is the ultimate motorhome to go racing in. It is like a home on wheels! I can't wait to get travelling to our first race of the season.

In 2008, Scott Beaumont will be competing in:

World Cup Series
World Championships
National Series
National Championships
Selected local events

Feel free to stop by at the races and take a look at Scott's new motorhome.
