10 out of 10 from SuperBike!
We know the HeatWave Heated Back Support is already helping thousands of people with bad backs to stay active and keep warm, but now the motorcycle world has also picked up on the powerful combination of delivering soothing warmth to the kidneys whilst bolstering and supporting the whole lower back area, as per the recent SuperBike March issue at page 99 in which Features Editor Simon Roots has given the product full marks whether used with a portable power pack or linked to the motorcycle battery. There is also a superb review of our new StormShield Heated Gloves in the same issue at page 34.
Boundary 500 motorcycle group helps keep Great North Air Ambulance in flight
Brian Laverick and friends love their motorcycles and are putting them to the best possible use in regularly touring the 500 or so miles covered by the Great North Air Ambulance to raise funds for a vital service which receives no government funding whatsoever. Amongst their eager and loyal band you will find several members of the Cleveland Police Road Policing Unit - three of them are fronting the image you can click on beside this article to view in more detail. If they appear to be smiling it could be because their StormRider Bodywarmers are taking the pain out of long distance biking ; Bikesafe Co-ordinator at Cleveland, PC Steve Darby, has said that all the guys have been impressed whether using the StormRiders linked directly to their motorcycle battery or alternatively via the portable power pack when they are attending incidents in all weather conditions over a period of several hours ; indeed one comment being 'best bit of kit we have ever had'. See more about their efforts at www.boundary500.co.uk and the work being done to improve road safety and reduce the number of motorcycle related accidents in Cleveland & surrounding areas at www.ridewell.org.uk
