Custom-bike championship ‘first’ for London Show

An action-packed 2014 Carole Nash MCN London Motorcycle Show (14-16 February) has been announced, including the inaugural London Custom Bike Championship with a massive prize fund, new interactive zones and a line-up of top racers soon to be announced.
 
Organisers say the 2013 show was deemed a spectacular success by visitors and exhibitors alike as 36,777 show-goers attended over the three days – the best figure since the show’s formation in 2008. The show ‘gate’ was up 37%.  
The free, centrally placed ‘Revolution’ live-action show brings together racing celebrities past and present to compete over obstacles in a fun spectacle. Last year’s line-up included former champions and TV pundits Jamie Whitham and Neil Hodgson, Isle of Man TT legend John McGuinness, 12-time Trials World Champion Dougie Lampkin, 2011 British Superbike Champion Tommy Hill and fans-favourite Chris Walker, who all thrilled the crowds with their skills, spills stunts and full-on racing. 
Next year the event will host the first ever London Custom Bike Championships, a big money competition which, it is hoped, will attract the finest customising houses from all over Europe.

Meanwhile, with just under a month to go until Motorcycle Live 2013 opens its doors, the tally of major motorcycle manufacturers showcasing their brand-new machinery at the UK’s biggest bike show has risen to 30 with the addition of off-road, trials and enduro brands Gas Gas and Husqvarna. 
 
Organisers say more than 150 other exhibitors and retail stands will be at the show, offering the best in motorcycle kit, accessories, products and services.
 
This year, there are 17 FREE features and zones – including nine opportunities to ride – ensuring that motorcycle fans of all ages are kept entertained.
