The organizers are proud to have several prominent personalities associated with motorsport at an international level are ambassadors for FIM Ride Green Eco Enduro:
Brian Kjær Jørgensen:
Sole Danish motocross driver, who in recent times have won World Championship races in the elite category MX1. Brian Kjær Jørgensen is now DMU coach of the Danish motocross elite.
John Nielsen:
World history first Danish winner of the 24-hour Le Mans and one of the most experienced and successful Danish racing ever. John says: "I am supporting the EcoEnduro because this is the directions things are going. El-operation shows the way, both in two and four wheels." John Nielsen is incidentally the only Danish racing driver who has actually run a hybrid car at a high level when he drove for the U.S. Team Panoz in the American Le Mans Series.
Robbin Harms:
Denmark's best Road Racing rider. Robbin Harms has for a number of years participated in MotoGP and now takes part in the 2009 Supersport World Championship with fine results. Robbin says: "I think it's genius to show that it does not need to be boring to practice environmentally correct motorsport. If we inside the motor business show the way, other don’t have to show us."
Hans Tholstrup:
Danish / Australian solar pioneer and eco-futurist establishing the World Solar Challenge with his "Quiet Achiever" a home-built solar car which he drove across Australia from west to east in 1982. "Inaugurated in 1987, the World Solar Challenge showcases the development of advanced automotive technology and promotes alternatives to conventional automobiles." Today Hans Tholstrup, spends time farming in Australia, but at any given chance enjoys the opportunity to refine the delicate art of hypermiling - squeezeing those extra miles out the last few drops of fuel.
