The “Never Drink and Drive Song”; Progress update…

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

My “Never Drink and Drive” project is moving along right now and the recording of the theme song is almost complete. The studio work should be finished in a week or so after which we can get on with launching our important message to the world!

The National Road Safety Authority has come onboard the plan and will be playing a vital role in promoting the overall media end of things. Please watch out for our updates over the next few months…. you folks and fellow road users can help in a big way by having a listen to the song and maybe even singing the catch cry at your next family party!…. Never Drink and Drive!

Never Drink and Drive!

BlarneyQuick Races Forward

Friday, February 8th, 2008

A short time ago while visiting in the USA, a whole new world of interest was created for me. The unique BlarneyQuick Racing Team was launched for motorbike fans across the world and the founder was my son, Kieron Mooney. It was like a dream come true for me as I experienced the thrill of seeing Kieron turn his life long love of motorbikes and permanent hobby into a pragmatic venture with a true business base. The whole ethos of the company is to have its supporters and clients share their bike information, ideas, experiences, dreams and stories on an ongoing basis at a central base. What a great idea!

In what seemed no time at all, the exciting website was installed and the immediate response was remarkable as hits came in from fans in the international bike world. I was honoured to be one of the first to have a little spin on the BlarneyQuick official Suzuki GSXR750 team machine. Then the Boss Man told me I would be expected to write a theme song for the BQ Company in the near future! That will give me something to think about!

The Boss Man will be in Ireland very shortly when he hopes to meet and interview Ireland’s top TT race champion Martin Finnegan, in company with the Irish BQ adviser Myles Lally.

I am off now to start really thinking about the BQ song… what rhymes with Suzuki?

 

Pete with the Boss Man!
