Largest National Motorcycle Series Adds
New Kids-Friendly Feature Dubbed “Entire Universe Of Vehicles, Gear And Fun, Just For Kids!”

Santa Ana, CA – November 4, 2004 – Producers of the Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows® presented by Toyota Trucks realize that “kids are riders, too” – so they’re opening up a brand new section of the 2005 shows dedicated to these enthusiasts: the Kids Cycle Center.

“The Kids Cycle Center is a brand-new area of the show designed exclusively for youth ages 6-15,” says Jeff D’Entremont, Show Director for the series. “It’s full of kid-friendly features – small-displacement bikes and ATVs from major manufacturers, and right-sized apparel and safety equipment. It’s also a great way for parents and kids to get more information on local rides/events/clubs. The Kids Cycle Center is an entire universe of vehicles, gear and fun, just for kids.”

“Over 60,000 of last year’s motorcycle show attendees were under the age of 12,” adds D’Entremont. “So it’s important for us to offer family-friendly features that appeal to riders of all ages.”

The feature will be staffed by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) personnel. Printed material along with video’s showing different types of motorcycle and ATV riding will be provided by the MSF.

Sponsors for the Kids Cycle Center include: Tucker Rocky featuring Answer Racing and MSR, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Thor, Suzuki, Honda, Troy Lee Designs and Polaris.
