ERIC BOSTROM TO PARTNER UP WITH RACING 2 SAVE LIVES FOR 2006

Denver – CO – October 09, 2005 – Eric Bostrom, AMA Superbike racer and fan-favorite, will be partnering up with Racing 2 Save Lives (R2SL) for the 2006 event.

Racing 2 Save Lives is pleased to announce that Eric Bostrom, of AMA pro-racing fame, will be partnering with us for our 2006 3rd Annual Endurance Race Event! Upon hearing the great stories of what R2SL accomplished at Pikes Peak International Raceway, Eric approached Stan and Sharon Foxworthy with a request to help out.

Said Eric, "I have always wanted to do something good for kids, but never had the time to really organize something. What you have started doing is exactly what I want to be a part of."

With Bostrom’s decision to join the R2SL team, the 2006 event will be re-titled “The
2006 Eric Bostrom Racing 2 Save Lives Endurance Event.”

Bostrom became interested in the event when he spoke with Sharon and Stan Foxworthy at the 2005 AMA races at Pikes Peak International Raceway, located in Fountain, Colorado. Having always wanted to put together a similar effort, it made sense for Eric to work with the R2SL team and make the 2006 event a tremendous one.

The R2SL team welcomes Eric’s involvement and looks forward to a successful 3rd Annual Children’s Charity Fundraising event.

Bostrom began riding motorbikes at the age of five, began racing at eight, and turned professional at the young age of 16. He currently races in the AMA Superbike series. Always gracious towards his fans, his association with Racing 2 Save Lives is bound to create more excitement and rider participation.

Racing 2 Save Lives is in its third season of existence. Created as a philanthropic opportunity for riders and racers to give back to the community through the combination of pledge fundraising, corporate donations and track riding sessions, R2SL has raised over $200,000 in donations for five well-deserving Children’s Charities: Make A Wish® Foundation of Colorado, The Children’s Hospital, Missing Children Task Force, Family Pathways of Colorado, and Here’s Life Inner-City Denver.

Stay tuned for further exciting developments.
