Giving B(l)ack Friday | Motorcycling

We're doing things a bit differently this Black Friday.

We've launched some new discounted bundles where you can get a great deal on devices, accessories and kit. These deals are limited in number and won't last long. Check 'em out and get in there quick.

Alongside these bargain deals, we're committing to giving B(l)ack Friday. After all, the festive season is about giving. 

5% of Black Friday weekend revenue will be donated to two excellent charities. 

 

Blood Bikes

For Moto products the charity we're giving to Blood Bikes 

Blood Bikes is a volunteer-run service that provides a free out-of-hours medical transportation to the UK's National Health Service. 

Every day, across the UK, motorcyclists get kitted up and wait on-call for urgent out-of-hours runs of blood and other 'medical essentials' to hospitals in their area. 

They'll transport blood, biological samples, medical notes, e-rays and scans to support our wonderful National Health Service, totally free of charge

In 2017 alone, 3372 volunteers made 73,617 urgent runs. With 31 National Association of Blood Bikes members across the country, their coverage extended across 85% of the population (54 million people). 

Their impact is immeasurable for the thousands of patients that they help, and the patients' families and friends. 

We hope that our fundraising weekend will help to provide lots of much needed funding for the amazing blood biker member groups.
