Darvill Distribution Ltd will now be working hard to establish distribution agreements with a number of existing motorcycle Dealers across the UK & Ireland and are keen to support the UK Governments drive towards greater use of electric vehicles with all the associated environmental and financial benefits.

"We are thrilled to be involved in the electric motorcycle industry, as it promises to be an exhilarating ride, in more ways than one” says Alex Aitchison, Operations Director for Darvill Distribution, and Team Principal for Darvill Racing. "We have an exciting season of racing events throughout 2014. This will include entering Brammo supported electric motorcycles in a number of venues, some of which will be ‘World first’s’, so keep an eye open for further press releases and details on our websites".

I am sooooo sad that I will be in Ireland (well I'm happy to go to Ireland...but) the week before the Isle of Man TT.....gah...I will be sooooo close to the Isle of Man...

Grrrrr... I do hope Brammo does some racing at the TT...that will be cool, even if I will barely miss being there...

And no, I can't extend my trip for an extra 7-10 days.....sadly...

I just saw that Darville added a new twitter feed for its Brammo distribution division: @Darvill_Distribution . So, in addition to @darvillracing , make sure you follow them on Twitter. They are also on Facebook, but I'm on my mobile and it's a hassle to track it down right now.

Watching chatter on Facebook it appears that another company in the UK announced they were the sole Brammo distributor a few days before Darvill.  I don't think its a very big deal, but man these Brits sure like getting wound up over BS.
