Welcome to the wildest ride on 2 wheels

My name is Michael Cole and I am inviting you to join with me on a world tour. One that has never been done before.

January 2009 I rode from St john’s NL to Victoria BC over 5000 miles. The coldest winter on record. All on a motorcycle with no modifications.

In the coming year not only will I repeat this ride across Canada But planning to ride in The United States. 9000 miles 10 weeks All in the winter

Giving the Silent Killer Diabetes a Voice

Along with a film crew What I am doing will be one of the best covered stories for years to come.

After Riding over 5000 miles across Canada in the coldest winter on record. I am confident in my riding ability. Having coverage from every major TV station in Canada as well newspapers and radio live and recorded while on the ride This enabled me to reach out to 2.9 million people. Since the 2009 ride has ended numerous magazines in Canada ,USA and over seas have covered this story. Over 11 million readers and viewers. This was accomplished without a press agent.

In the up coming year I am planning to ride again. This time with a press agent handling media releases, film crew and photographer. Riding in numerous countries. I have been presented with the opportunity to ride on the Great Wall of China. Interest from Canadian National Geographic, National Geographic, Time magazine, GQ, Canadian bike magazines and the Europeans. As well Producers from the TV and film industry. Sponsors for this world event will be given the opportunity will be given the chance to showcase their products and services.

As well as riding and talking about the diabetes epidemic, I will talk about the great people and products that are standing beside me on this journey. You will be given the rights to pictures, articles, film and presented with the opportunity to shoot a commercial with your product. Support vehicles will have your logo’s and web sites displayed. Sponsorships in whole or in part will be tax deductable. Working closely with the Canadian Diabetes Association and associations in each country I will be riding in Enables me to issue receipts for products and some services provided by you and/or your company.

Radical Riding

Good day  Since Mike completed his first ride across Canada during one of the coldest winters on record VIA a motor bike all funds designated to diabetes. His website and videos are getting phenomenal hits daily!   Picking a time of year that no self respecting rider would consider riding, that is Mike's signature as the CRAZY CANUCK pushing the limits of the machine and the rider. This is real, no stunt people and what you see is what you get! We are looking to document the entire event as we we ride.

 Mike is very insistent on what ever money is raised during the ride be donated to the diabetes research We feel that the media and product providers would be able to front costs in exchange for promotion and marketing and publication rights. We are in need of funds to make this run again… We are looking to the people who would benefit the most from this event for support! What we are is a method for many companies to advertise in a highly visible media event, weather it be bikes, clothing, boots or signage on support vehicles as well as mentions and promotions through the media

We are looking to companies and media markets capable of supporting Mikes ride for diabetes, with the wealth and ability to support an event of this magnitude. What I am asking is would you be willing to go the next step and help support in exchange for exclusive access to the event and his story? Mike is a very flavourful person who if it required, he would climb into the Octagon with an Extreme Fighter and go a few rounds. Like Mike would say,” I’ll be damned sure to get a few good licks in!” He is small feisty and ready to rock at a moments notice. He is a truck driver who posts driver safety and videos on his Face Book and Website. His past is as flavourful as his present, people person with an attitude, reality at its best! Out spoken and straight forward, blue collar as they come!!! A touch of Red Neck to round him off!
