The Federation of Motorsports clubs of Uganda (FMU) has officially launched the FIM Africa Motorcross of African Nations at Speke resort Munyonyo.
Crown Beverages under their product Mountain Dew have continued with their support into Motorcross investing in over 50 million Uganda shillings in the upcoming Africa event.
“We have supported Motorsport for over a decade and we shall continue with the support, we are so happy to be part of the big event on the African calendar in Motorsport.” Said Grace Namutebi the Marketing manager Mountain Dew.
Part of support from mountain dew will go to the media who will cover the event and the fans as each one will be given a bottle of mountain Dew upon entry.
The FIM Africa Motorcross of African Nations will take place at Garuga Victoria race way track which was cleared by FIM to host the event from 19th – 24th August.
The launch was graced by newly appointed sports Minister Peter Ogwang who pledged to lobby more for sports development in Uganda and also promised to attend in person the event on Sunday.
