POCATELLO, ID (September 10) -- SPOT, LLC and ThumperTalk.com are working together to help off road riders and their families with security and peace of mind, while giving back to the RiderDown Foundation and the BlueRibbon Coalition at the same time. The SPOT Satellite Messenger is extending an exclusive offer to the more than 188,000 registered members of ThumperTalk.com, the largest and most active community of off-road motorcycle and ATV enthusiasts on the planet. Members are eligible to receive 100 percent off the Personal Tracking service for one year when purchasing SPOT online at www.ThumperTalk.com.

SPOT LLC. is splitting six percent of the proceeds from each SPOT Satellite Messenger sold through ThumperTalk.com between the RiderDown Foundation and the BlueRibbon Coalition, a national recreation group that champions responsible use of public and private lands, and encourages individual environmental stewardship.

"At RiderDown we help injured riders and their families," says Bruce Vermeulen, President of the RiderDown Foundation. "Some of the riders we have worked with have been pretty far out on the trail when they've crashed in extremely remote areas. Locating and retrieving these riders is obviously a major priority. Using the SPOT personal tracker with its ability to access the GEOS International Emergency Response Center provides a huge advantage in getting the medical attention and help needed as quickly as possible. We are very pleased that SPOT & ThumperTalk have chosen the RiderDown Foundation, along with our hardworking friends at the BlueRibbon Coalition, to benefit from this great program."

"We already know the SPOT personal satellite tracking system is a valuable product. Two of our people on the BlueRibbon Coalition Team use the SPOT system when they are out riding and swear by them. So, when Bryan Bosch from ThumperTalk called to let me know that they were teaming up with SPOT to make the units available to their members and that BlueRibbon Coalition and the RiderDown Foundation were going to benefit from each sale through ThumperTalk, I couldn't have been more delighted," said Greg Mumm, Executive Director of the BlueRibbon Coalition. "This is a win-win situation for everyone. Riders purchasing the SPOT system through ThumperTalk.com can rest assured that help is only a push of a button away when they go riding and two important organizations that work for riders are gaining much needed support."

Give yourself peace of mind, give your family peace of mind, and give your friends peace of mind. If you're not already a member, join ThumperTalk.com today and take advantage of this exceptional offer. ThumperTalk.com members can take advantage of this exclusive offer by visiting www.findmespot.com/thumpertalk.
