The Donington Classic Motorcycle Festival (7-9 August) is “shaping up to be the best yet”, organisers claim, with a feast of on-track racing featuring 500 racing machines, several star names from the world of motorcycling and a bursting line-up of off track displays and activities.
The Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club (VJMC) will again hold the Classic Clubs Show in the Exhibition Centre, which will see more than 40 motorcycle and scooter clubs attending, with bikes from the UK, Europe and Japan, and more than 400 bikes expected to form displays, one of the largest shows dedicated to motorcycles.
The centrepiece of the exhibition will be the VJMC stand which will see over 60 bikes on display with machines from the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 90s on show. Expect to see examples from Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki and more on display here.
The majority of the machines on display will then take part in the exhibitor’s parade on track during the Sunday lunchtime, one of the longest bike parades seen at any racing circuit.
