In the calm before the storm, bidding on Nicky Hayden’s leathers–being auctioned off on eBay to benefit the Roadracing World Air Fence Fund–has reached $3600, rising only $50 in the sixth day of the 10-day auction. But bidding is expected to intensify as the close of the sale approaches. The auction ends at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time Sunday, December 16 with all proceeds from the sale of the leathers, minus eBay and escrow service fees, going to the Roadracing World Air Fence Fund.
