United Kingdom (8/3/2007)
- In keeping with sponsorship of the very
best in two wheel sport, Optoma Loans will be the
holeshot sponsor of the main solo race at this year's
beach race. The sponsorship not only offers £500
for the first rider to reach the Optoma Loans holeshot
boards after the one mile blast down the Weston
beach, but also provides a £250.00 prize for
the spectator who correctly predicts who that rider
will be.
Optoma Loans will underpin the partnership by increasing
brand awareness through signage and advertising
opportunities, utilising hospitality for business
development, and operating a fans gallery in conjunction
with their website www.optomaracing.co.uk
Started in the summer of 2006, Optoma Loans have
launched their brand through sponsorship of the
best names in motorbike sport including the Virgin
Media Optoma Loans Yamaha British Superbike Team.
They have increased their two wheel portfolio to
include Brad Anderson in World and British MX1,
Steve Plater in NW200 and Isle of Man TT, Mick Extance
- the best British rider in the Dakar Rally, and
title sponsorship of the Great Britain Team at the
82nd International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) World
Championships to be held in Chile in November 2007.
CEO and Chairman of Optoma Loans, Andrew Seymour
said, "I see the Weston Beach Race as the number
one off-road motorcycle sport event in the UK and
Optoma Loans is proud to be supporting such a high
profile occasion in the motorcycle community calendar.
As a company, Optoma Loans can help you to organise
your finances, consolidate your loans and other
credit and give you the freedom to do exactly what
you want, and like our Optoma Racing riders, live
your dreams - whether it's taking on the Isle of
Man TT Races or finishing the Weston Beach Race.
We are all looking forward to this year's special
anniversary event."
Gareth Hockey, Director of promoters RHL Activities,
said, "I am really pleased that Optoma Loans
has decided to be an official sponsor of the beach
race and I am looking forward to building a mutually
beneficial long term relationship. These are exciting
times for the beach race as we look to build on
the previous 25 years' success, and partnerships
with companies like Optoma Loans can only have a
positive effect."
