Schuberth Supporting 2014 BMW Riders Association National Rally

The Schuberth event van will be rolling into Barber Motorsports Museum May 29 – June 1 for the 2014 BMW Riders Association National Rally. Attendees will be able to see the latest styles and graphics, get fitted by factory reps and take Schuberth helmets for demo rides. The Schuberth area will feature all helmet models including the SR1 Racing helmet, S2 Full Face helmet, C3 Pro and C3 Pro Women flip-up helmets, as well as a selection of premium Held gloves and apparel.

BMW, Schuberth and Held are brand names that share a strong connection: premium, German-engineered products. “BMW riders share our passion for high-quality equipment,” said Sarah Schilke, Schuberth North America’s Marketing and PR Manager. “Bringing Held products into the fold was a natural progression and we’re excited to educate BMW riders about both the Schuberth and Held brands at the rally.”

The four-day BMW Riders Association National Rally includes special behind-the-scenes tours of the Barber Vintage Museum, live music, seminars, door prizes and premium brand vendors such as Schuberth.

Keith Code’s California Superbike School will be holding 4 days of advanced training in conjunction with the BMW rally featuring the S1000RR. Students will also be able to test ride the SR1 and S2 helmets on track at Barber.

The boards of the Motorcycle Industry Council (MIC), Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF), Specialty Vehicle Institute of America (SVIA), and the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association (ROHVA) voted unanimously to appoint Scott Schloegel as acting president and CEO of the associations. Diana Sanchez was appointed acting chief operating officer.

Schloegel and Sanchez, whose appointments are effective immediately, will also continue to serve in their current roles as senior vice president of government relations and vice president of operations respectively. The interim leadership was selected to ensure a seamless transition as the associations’ search committee continues to conduct a comprehensive review of the position of president and CEO, and a subsequent search to replace outgoing President and CEO Erik Pritchard.
