Motorcycle Live ends with £5,000 auction

Bike insurance seekers may have gained some good ideas about new bikes to purchase at the recent Motorcycle Live event, which culminated with a £5,000 auction on Sunday (December 5th).

The spectacle - which took place at the NEC in Birmingham - had various items for sale, including a Jorge Lorenzo-signed replica X-Lite helmet, in aid of the Riders for Health charity.

Other products that went under the hammer included a canvas picture containing the autographs of top bikers Valentino Rossi, Casey Stoner, Dani Pedrosa and Lorenzo.

Ambassador for the aid organisation Randy Mamola said: "The auction worked really well for the charity and I want to thank everybody, from the racers to the fans, for their support."

He went on to call the auction a "perfect end to a great event".

The nine-day spectacle was opened by reigning MotoGP World Champion Jorge Lorenzo last month when he started a firework display.
