Duck Smart: Official Cleaning Partners of the UK Arenacross Tour!

Howdy there festive fellas!  This week has ended amazingly for us as we are proud to say we are the Official Cleaning Partners of the epic Arenacross Tour and what is by far the best Offroad event experience in the country.

We have been working with our good buddies at E22 Sports for some time now; first up with the Pro Nationals series, and last year with the Pro Nationals Festival and it has always been a partnership that has worked well and we have enjoyed.  

So now, like Spinal Tap we will be loading up the Tour bus and hitting the many cities in the series and providing Waterless Wash Bays for the riders and teams using a combination of our Smart N Ezee Drywash and Detailer and our Mud Slider aftercare which should stop too much dirt sticking in the first place.

On top of that we will be providing the products, equipment and manpower to keep the Arena signage, promo vehicles, tuff blocks, start gates........ clean, shining and smelling fresh throughout. 

With some of the Top racers in the World banging bars for Arenacross supremacy and the cream of the FMX crop going skywards you would be a fool to miss this so give their website and view and sign yourselves up for some tickets by visiting the below:

It wouldn't be right of us not to fire up our Comp machine and offer you the chance to win something Arenacross related would it?

So in true DS style we blagged a couple of tickets for the first round at Manchester 
on the 3rd January.  To be sure these are gonna be the hottest ticket of the new year and as always we will throw in a good stash of DS goodies.

To have the chance of entering the comp just head over to our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/ducksmart and give the relevant post a Like N Share and one lucky festive elf will be winging themselves and a buddy over to Manchester.

Hit the Holeshot at the MX Nationals and bag some Duck Smart!

When it comes to 2015, we are already all over it like a rash, and alongside having already signed up our talented team of DS racers for the season we have also agreed to become Holeshot sponsors for the MX Nationals race series.  Still in its infancy , with it only being in its second year in 2015,the guys at the Nationals have worked their socks off and not only that, they have put themselves on the line to create something different for the sport and that is something we have huge respect for.

If you race MX and are on the look out for a series to race in then give their website a visit at www.mxnationals.co.uk Youth, clubman, Experts and Pro's are all catered for, so what your waiting for, give the link a click & get involved.

Take 2, the MXGP Treatment winners weekend!!

Ding Ding round 2 and all that, the MXGP Treatment winners weekend took place on the legendary slopes of the Asham Woods circuit near Frome which on memorable occasions in the past had been host to many an MX great.

This time round it was the Final round of the British Evo Series alongside the Sidecar Clubmans champs and the chance for our comp winner Martin Foster to get on the track and put pay to the gremlins which halted his winners weekend after a practice malfunction that couldn't be rectified last time round.

With the well wishing, back slapping and handing over of the race kit, pit board, and other goodies out of the way last time round this time it was down to business & the serious stuff of the racing.   C'mon can you imagine that from us??  Nay chance, full on banter, laughs and some old school male bonding was the order of the weekend, ah yeah and Martin surpassed his half a lap of practice last time and hit home with a full 3 laps and then 3 races to follow.

Team mechanic Steve (who has known and been going to MX with Martin since they were at college) used his pit board to full advantage and as well as some well informed motivational snippets, there was also a customary amount of MX cliches and witty remarks aplenty for good measure.

On board his immaculate 1989 YZ125 Martin looked trick in his Thor race kit (thanks Madison), and we kept his bike looking tip top throughout without water, using our Smart N Ezee Waterless Cleaner & polish , Mud Slider for under the mudguards and some Kit Clean on his boots.  

With the suitably retro and legendary Oil brand, Bel-Ray (cheers Rapid) on board as a partner the machine was prepped and singing like a 2 smoker banshee should when racing a flat out on an old school beast of a track, and Martin was greeted by whoops & hollers from Team Duck on each lap.  (I know your gonna ask this but nope there wasn't any girls on this occasion, they were booked and on their way for the first time but couldn't make it for attempt number 2).





So with two weekend's to savour did the comp winner Martin enjoy his prize?  Well your gonna have to wait a little bit until the vid comes out, but yep we reckon he did, and one things for sure we did and without doubt Martin and his best mate Steve were worthy winners of the competition and now classed as good friends rather than acquaintances.



We would like to say a big thanks to Nick from the Frome Motorcycle Club and his team for being so welcoming as well as Kevin Spencer of the British Evo Series who has been such a helpful host and great help throughout the two weekends. 

Also massive thanks to our distributors Madison and Rapid for supporting this weekend alongside Thor, Bel-Ray, Torc1 and Risk Racing as well as our friends at Freestyle Extreme and Print Shop Express.  Also all of the members of Team DS who sent in their good luck messages.
