MY<br />

OR Tambo airport in JHB was plastered<br />

with Brad Binder fans, all sporting their<br />

official Brad Binder shirt, caps and flags<br />

done by us here at RideFast. It was<br />

literally a sea of Binder shirts lined up at<br />

International arrivals all waiting for our<br />

hero to come out.<br />

When he did, he was greeted with<br />

a massive cheer. You could see he<br />

was surprised and humbled by the<br />

response.<br />

After greeting, signing, and posing for<br />

pics with all their, Brad was rushed<br />

off to a media conference held at the<br />

Southern Sun hotel based at the airport.<br />

Later that night, as Brad’s official<br />

media partner since 2009, we had the<br />

honour of hosting the first official meet<br />

and greet with the champ, where 340<br />

guests got to see the man in person.<br />

RAD Moto came on board to help us<br />

out with the event, which was held at<br />

Ridgeway Racebar in Greenstone and<br />

was a huge success.<br />

Hosted by the voice of Motorsport in<br />

SA, Greg Moloney, Brad was asked<br />

questions by the crowd and then posed<br />

for pictures with all present on the night.<br />

It really was a special night, and we<br />

cannot thank Brad for coming out and<br />

supporting us. We are honoured to<br />

have been apart of his journey from day<br />

one. To get your official Brad Binder<br />

merch, email rob@ridefast.co.za.<br />
