The Championships Classes & Awards in the

Competition Class

The competition class, or open class, full race machines, tyres like chewing gum, engines with power to weight ratios that are astounding and some top class riders. Alongside these ride the rest of us, this class encompasses everyone and is divided into capacity and type classes (two/three wheels), so we have winners for each class, and at the end of the year an overall winner.

Championships:

The National Championship

This is The Championship, everyone is part of this, but you have to be really fast to get points, and to be in with a chance, a really top class Hill Climber - in the past our fast guys have beaten world class bike racing names, and not by a small margin!

The Classic & Veteran Championship

The Classic Championship, for those classic machines of the halcyon days of motorcycling, with that evocative sound and beautiful looks. Post war to the 70's - pure nostalgia, but not slow! Many of these machines are still trashing modern machines, it's the rider that counts.

The Veteran Championship, from the beginning of days until the end of the war. To ride these machines you have to have guts: skinny tyres, no suspension and brakes that would be scary on a pushbike, top that with a bike & rider combined age of over 120 in some cases, well what can I say?

The Road Legal Championship

This Championship is designed to give road bikes a chance. So MoTs, lights and a road bike are required - a hotly contested class for road going machines, you've got to be able to ride very well to get well up in the points. However if you are a beginner on your road bike you have a chance to compete on equal grounds.

The Forgotten Era Championship

A new Championship for 2008, designed for oldish motorcycles of all types that many people would like to race, those bikes that fall between two stools, neither old enough to be a classic, nor young enough to be fully competitive, the “Forgotten Era” championship is there to give these bikes and their riders a chance to compete with like machinery, have a real chance at a championship, and have other competitors to try and beat on the day – so no complicated scoring regimes!
