Successful welcome event in Leon

The organizers behind the MXGP of Leon are renowned for their outstanding promotion skills. Just as they have done in the year’s prior, they arranged an awesome welcoming ceremony in the town of Leon at the Calzada Arch where the people responsible for making the MXGP of Leon possible, Youthstream Director Mr. David Luongo, FIM/CMS Director Mr. Tony Skillington, President of RallyMex Mr. Juan Suberville, Mayor of Leon City Center Mr. Héctor López Santillana and Guanajuato Commision Sport's Director Isaac Piña Valdivia all shared their thanks and excitement for the weekend ahead.

As everyone arrived, a traditional Mexican dance was being performed on stage. Most of the riders racing the grand prix this weekend were in attendance and shortly after the speeches where the Mayor explained how proud they are to have the MXGP in Leon and that the team involved with the organization and promotion of the event is the perfect team to grow MXGP every year here in Mexico, they all made their way to the Altacia Shopping center for a signing session which attracted hundreds of buzzing MXGP fans. Fan interaction is important in growing a loyal fan base and the turn out has shown good signs that we are in for yet another mega round of MXGP this weekend.
