ongoing support of
American motocross,
GEICO will serve as the

such an extended period

to once again have them
on board for our 50th
anniversary,” said Davey

many ways the brand has
become synonymous with
the sport and their

The Maryland-based
company has grown to
become one of the
country’s most
recognizable brands and
has built a strong
presence within the
greater powersports
community through its
various investments
within the industry for
more than a decade.
GEICO Motorcycle’s
initial partnership with
the Lucas Oil Pro
Motocross Championship
dates back to 2014 and
has now extended into a
ninth season. Over that
time, GEICO has
amplified its
initiatives within
motorcycling and with
the military through the
world’s most prestigious
off-road motorcycle
racing series, which
will continue during
this landmark season
with a celebration of
those efforts at Budds
Creek.
“Motorsports have always
played a significant
role in the ability to
raise awareness for
GEICO and expand our
business. As one of
racing's most decorated
properties, we continue
our support of the Pro
Motocross Championship,
particularly as it
embarks on its landmark
50th anniversary," said
Joe Pusateri, vice
president of GEICO
marketing. "With one of
the most loyal and
passionate fanbases in
all of motorsports, it
has been great to see
the success of our
engagement with the
motocross audience. It
has not only benefited
the growth of GEICO
Motorcycle, but perhaps
more importantly it has
served as a cornerstone
in our ability to
support our military
veterans with the
first-class treatment
they deserve. We look
forward to this
milestone summer of Pro
Motocross competition
and pulling out all the
stops for the GEICO
Motorcycle Budds Creek
National in August.”
