TUSTIN, Calif.--Nov. 7, 2005--Fairchild Sports, creators of G-Line women's motorcycle gear, today announced sponsorship of the world-famous Love Ride. The Love Ride is the largest one-day motorcycle charity event in the world, in which, accompanied by celebrity support, more than 20,000 motorcyclists will ride from Glendale to Castaic Lake, Calif. The event has raised more than $17 million in previous years for charities such as Reading by 9, MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association) and City of Hope.
