Phoenix sponsor the Beat Beethoven Fun Run...

We're extremely proud to announce that we are sponsoring the Beat Beethoven Fun Run for the second year in a row.

The Beat Beethoven Fun Run is a fun fund-raising event for runners, joggers and walkers, adults and children and relay teams. It's being held in the delightful setting at the University of Stirling, and is particularly suitable for families. Entrants in fancy-dress will be specially welcome.

The challenge of this event is to run 5K or walk 2.7K in the time it takes to play Beethoven's Fifth Symphony – about 34 minutes. It's not too difficult a target: most entrants should be able to beat the maestro. All entrants will receive a medal, and a commemorative certificate.

And why should you do this? Well, the objective is for you to have a fun, enjoyable day, and to raise money for two very deserving charities – Children's Hospice Association for Scotland (CHAS) and Parkinson's UK. You can find more details about these charities in the relevant page.


If you're not able to participate in the Fun Run, you can still help. Why not become one of 'Beethoven's Backers' and donate to the cause.

Phoenix Motorcycles support the Forget Me Not Foundation


As we've mentioned many times before, at Phoenix we take pride in giving back to deserving charities, and this weekend we were honoured to be supporting the Forget Me Not Foundation.

On Saturday 15th February, the Forget Me Not Foundation held a fundraiser at The Radisson Hotel in Glasgow's city centre. From the get go you could tell that we were in for a fantastic evening. 

Throughout the night there were various fundraising events within the event itself, with the total figure reaching a whopping £60,000 and Phoenix were proud to contribute to this. 

Instead of donating money to the Forget Me Not Foundation, we decided to donate a Vision 50 Repsol Scooter as an auction prize, which ended up selling for £2,200.

The lucky winners: Mr. & Mrs. Ferguson
We were delighted with how popular the scooter was, but more importantly, both the Forget Me Not Foundation and the winners were delighted with their prize too. 

Overall this was a fantastic night not to be forgotten, we were more than happy to help and absolutely honoured to be a part of it.
