Our Em's Day publicity campaign started in earnest today. We visited the following motorcycle dealers etc. who are pleased to support the event and are now proudly displaying posters and flyers:

Moto Strada Italian Motorcycles, Shipley, who've said they plan to have a dealer presence at Em's Day.
Ducati Leeds, Shipley.
Maz @ The Emporium, Dukinfield.

Tomorrow we're going to visit:

Patrick Yates @ HarleyWorld, Chesterfield.
J&S Accessories, Doncaster.
Sprint Motorcycles, Wakefield.
Squires Bikers Cafe, Newthorpe.

Subsequent weekends will see us travelling further afield. We find that a personal approach works better than just posting things out and hoping for a positive response.

I will take one please

Duncan - your posters and flyers will also be posted tomorrow.

Another good day and with positive responses. This Em's Day publicity malarkey is all going rather well. We didn't quite make it to Squires so we'll do that next weekend. At the rate we're going we'll have to order some more posters.

Patrick @ Harleyworld (one of the very first members of UKBEG back in 1998) has kindly given us (on long term loan) an original white and blue late '90's Buell marquee for use at this years major events. UKBEG's presence at WSB Donington and Em's Day is going to look brilliant ...

The first result of our publicity campaign for Em's Day 2014 aimed at various national magazines. Below is the March/April issue of the Moto Guzzi Clubs Gambalunga and it should also appear in the May/June issue.

Mortons Media, publishers of Motorcycle Sport & Leisure, Motorcycle Monthly (over 67,000 readers) and Old Bike Mart, have said they want to make Em's Day 2014 their 'top event' in each relevant issue that covers the Spring Bank Holiday period.
