                  GOLDEN CYCLE EXTENDS GLOBAL MOTORSPORT OFFER

         WYNNEWOOD, PA, June 30, 1998 -- Golden Cycle, LLC said today that it is
reviewing its possible alternatives in view of the announcement by Global
Motorsport Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSTM) that the company has entered into an
acquisition agreement with Fremont Partners. Mr. Roger Grass, Vice President of
Golden Cycle, said "We do not understand how Global Motorsport's Board can
possibly be acting in the best interests of its shareholders. The Board refuses
to meet with us to discuss what our best offer might be, yet it has permitted
Fremont to back out of its $23 offer and agreed to a transaction which provides
shareholders with approximately $20.78 in cash, together with a stub interest,
for their shares. Moreover, the Board has granted Fremont an outrageous breakup
fee and expense reimbursement provision of $4.5 million, together with a right
to acquire 2.7 million shares."

         Golden Cycle has extended the expiration date of its offer to 12:00
midnight, New York City time, on Friday, July 24, 1998. Golden Cycle said it has
received tenders of approximately 117,000 shares of Global Motorsport Group.
