       WYNNEWOOD, PA, November 2, 1998 - Golden Cycle, LLC, announced today
that its offer to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock of Global
Motorsport Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSTM) expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City
time, on Friday, October 30, 1998. No shares were purchased under the offer
because of the failure to satisfy certain conditions to the offer, including the
condition that Global Motorsport's preferred share purchase rights be redeemed,
invalidated or otherwise made inapplicable to Golden Cycle's tender offer.

        Golden Cycle had previously announced that it would allow the tender
offer to expire without the purchase of any shares thereunder in order to
facilitate its revised proposal to acquire Global. On October 27, Golden Cycle
announced a proposed solicitation of consents from stockholders of Global to
replace Global's Board of Directors with nominees committed to facilitate an
acquisition of the company by Golden Cycle, in connection with which Global
would conduct a self tender offer to purchase up to approximately 4,600,000
shares of its common stock for $19 per share in cash. Golden Cycle has filed
preliminary proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission
regarding its proposed consent solicitation.

owner of 528,100 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Global.

president) of Jefferies & Company may assist Golden Cycle in the solicitation of
