EVANS ONBOARD FOR 2007

Ben Hart from Evans Marketing writes-"Evans Cycles have been long-time supporters of Team MAD and we're pleased to not only continue our support for 2006, but to increase it! MAD are unique, they're completely nuts, but at the same time extremely professional in what they do - putting on a great spectacle for their audiences day in and day out. MAD is all about taking bikes and thrusting it in the faces of the general public - getting people enthused about cycling and taking bikes to a completely new audience.  That's why they're such a great fit for us at Evans Cycles, helping us to reach people that wouldn't normally pick up a copy of MBR or step into a specialist bike shop. We generally use the team in close proximity to our stores to help raise awareness of Evans Cycles in the areas that we operate."

 

YES WE REALLY CAN BE IN 3 PLACES AT THE SAME TIME.
