As a Veteren owned business, we our very proud to support our charity affiliate Vet2track.org.
We give a good chunk of change from the sale of our special Vet2Track cooling undersuits to the cause and are active members on the Vet2Track committee.
Many soldiers returning from war bring hidden wounds home with them. PTSD is very real and is currently average of 22 veterans per day are taking their lives. Others are lost because they come home and purchase motorcycles to feel the adrenaline, to feel alive again, yet they don't possess the skills and ultimately lose their life.
Vet2Track is here to help a that select group of veterans that ride, or would like to ride, to acquire better skills to keep them alive, not only on the road, but in life. We work with the Veteran, their therapist and the track day organization to assist the veteran in any way possible.
The racetrack is a unique blend of people, from all walks of life with a common bond. A camaraderie if you will, that is similar to the military. A trust you gain of others striving for that same goal, to ride hard and go home in one piece.
We believe that the people and the track experience can be a valuable part of helping these Veterans by providing goals, and something to look forward to as well as the friendships and memories.

There are some great racers in North America with a lot of potential. They are smooth, they are fast, and they can blow away the competition. However, in order to make it to the top, they need help, A LOT OF IT, by getting solid support from their team, family, and sponsors.
Unfortunately, there is no education for racers on the marketing and promotion side of things. Running some stickers on a racebike just doesn't cut it nowadays. And with new businesses emerging out of the ashes of hard financial times, the time is now more than ever to start thinking outside of the box. Sponsorship's can be redefined as partnerships; two entities helping the other grow and be prosperous. Celebrity endorsements just don't seem to be as effective or authentic for us to believe anymore.
Racers pay to race. That's how it has been for a long time in North America. There are no scholarships out there for aspiring athletes in this sport in North America. There is no money to be made (well with the exception of maybe a handful of riders), and in our opinion, motorcycle racers reach a whole new level of dedication and insanity that most people or athlete's cannot even comprehend. So why can't motorcycle racing have college scholarships, courses, and great financial backing? It can be done, and it will change over time, but it takes a number of dedicated people and businesses to ensure this happens.
VnM Sport can help with providing the gear necessary for racers to succeed, and we do have programs in place where some money can be made for them. But that doesn't seem good enough. More needs to be done. Over the years we have seen common sponsorship and marketing mistakes made by racers that can easily be avoided with a little guidance.
We want to help this industry grow, and to start, this is what we have decided to do.
VnM Sport will be putting in place mentorship programs for each season, working closely with racers to help the achieve their goals. Updates will be posted on our instagram and facebook pages.
