Sponsorship... Write your company name on my skin.
Hi guys,

I'm looking for a leathers sponsor. Because of my off at Cadwell, I've quite ruined the right hand side of the bum on my leathers. Duck tape was ok for scrutineering but I don't want to make roast chicken of my bum every meeting if I happen to meet the track again. So following everybody's advice I'm going to take them to "9 lives" for a quote of the repair first.

I have no idea of how much they may ask to repair them, but if it's too much (over the £100 mark) I will try to find a leather sponsor. Main point of the deal: the sponsor pays the bill from "9 lives" and in exchange I'll carry their colour on my leathers for the whole season (except if I crash again -which I won't once I've setup the bike properly- and ruin the leathers again and new ones are needed. But that won't happen, trust me). Of course that's the main point of the deal, then as one of my sponsors you'll get (for at least 2 meetings), free paddock passes and food and drink in my hospitality suite (which wll surely be a gazebo...), your name on my website (tonio82.co.uk), maybe also on the bike, etc...

Full package specification to come later, first I need to get a quote or the repair (+ company name on the leathers). U2U if interested.

Cheers
Tonio.
