MARKHAM, Ont. – The Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame is pleased to welcome BMW Motorrad Canada as a sponsor of the Eighth Annual Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Banquet and Reunion, which takes place on November 2 at the Delta Meadowvale Hotel and Conference Center in Mississauga, Ont.
“We are proud to be a part of this exceptional event which recognizes the accomplishments and hard work of the many legendary riders, advocates and industry standouts that have made Canadian motorcycling what it is today,” noted BMW Motorrad Canada Director Norm Wells.
“BMW Motorrad Canada has been in the business of building motorcycles since 1923. This year they celebrate 90 years of manufacturing motorcycles. We are proud to have them on board to help us honour the class of 2013,” stated Roger Pelletier, Chairman of the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame Banquet Planning Committee, which oversees the event.
The gala event will officially honour the incoming class of 2013. This year, eight legends and champions will be honoured as well as the The Corduroy Enduro™ as it celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2013.
The Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Banquet and Reunion is the annual signature event of the Canadian International Motorcycle Heritage Museum Foundation, a non-profit association with charitable status. It is governed by an independent board of volunteer directors located from coast to coast and is sponsored in part by the Motorcyclists Confederation of Canada (MCC).
Founded by Bar and Hedy Hodgson in 1999, the Canadian International Motorcycle Heritage Museum Foundation preserves and promotes Canadian motorcycle history for the benefit of the motorcycling community and the public. Since the first induction banquet in Toronto in 2006, almost 100 distinguished motorcyclists have been inducted into the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame.
