Husqvarna Motorcycles North America is proud to be the presenting sponsor of the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame. The weekend of September 26th-28th has officially been declared the Canadian Motorcycle Hall Of Fame Weekend in Edmonton, Alberta Canada by the city of Edmonton.
September 27th 2014, Husqvarna Motorcycles North America would like to announce that
Husqvarna will be the title sponsor of the coveted Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame. Due to the positive impact of the motorcycling community in the region, the Mayor of Edmonton, Don Iveson, has declared the weekend of September 26th-28th Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame Weekend.
This event is the first of its kind in Canada since 1913. The purpose of this event is to preserve and celebrate the Canadian history of motorcycling in Edmonton.
The Hall of Fame Weekend presented by Husqvarna Motorcycles North America will include many events, ranging from Poker Rally’s, Demos, Show and Shines, Toy Runs and the Hall of Fame Induction Evening and Reunion. Edmonton will see the likes of many clubs as well as long time motorcycle racing enthusiasts. Several individuals who have been instrumental in the development of motorcycle racing in Canada since its origins will be inducted, including Steen and Marion Hansen. Steen and Marion Hansen were an integral part of the development and distribution of Husqvarna Motorcycles in Canada. They are considered to be the first ones to import Husqvarna motorcycles into the country in the late 1960s, making it a household name within the motorcycling community.
The Hall of Fame Weekend presented by Husqvarna Motorcycles North America encompasses tremendous heritage in the form of tradition. It is therefore without question that Husqvarna Motorcycles North America has partnered with the Canadian Motorcycling Hall of Fame. The word tradition is in fact one of Husqvarna’s core values. Tradition is represented by the fact that Husqvarna is the world’s second oldest motorcycle brand producing motorcycles continuously since 1903, to present day.
