RUBEN XAUS SUPPORTS THE ONG “MOTOS SOLIDARIAS”

The d’Antin MotoGP rider Ruben Xaus has been appointed honour member of the “Motos Solidarias” organization during a function celebrated in the NH Podium Hotel in Barcelona.

“Motos Solidarias” is the Spanish branch of “Riders for Health” ONG founded in the year 1989 and devoted to saving lives supplying means of transport to canalise medical resources in different African countries. This ONG is dedicated to intensify its actions at present.

Spain is a very caring country and the passion for the two tyres sports takes root. That is why all the actions undertaken by “Motos Solidarias” have been a success in the same way it has happened in Great Britain.

The main World-Championship rider’s involvement is complete and this week Ruben Xaus went along with other riders such as Sete Gibernau and Carlos Checa to pick up the organization’s honorary member award from one of the main responsible hands, the ex-rider Randy Mamola.

Xaus is pride of having a chance to help to the development of this project: “I am very glad that they have counted on me and I can assure that my implication is going to be complete. I will attend as many acts called by Motos Solidarias as I can and I will contribute as much as I can taking part in the auctions or in any other activities. I think that even giving little help we can not lose the chance of doing so”.
