The first full weekend in April sees three of the BEARs class sidecars taking to the famous ‘Mountain Course’!! This isn’t a TT event, more of a gentle cruse around those iconic roads that have seen so much history made, a chance to take a racing outfit through all those great photo opportunities!


If you would like to come and have a ride around the ‘Island of Dreams’ we will be arranging ‘Taxi Rides’ of various time lengths right up to a full lap which depending on traffic would be about an hour, not the twenty minutes that the TT bikes take but still a thrill in every way!

Dick Hawes - The End Of An Era
(Posted on behalf and at the request of Pam Hawes)
 
I’m sad to say that one of the sport’s longest serving competitors and enthusiast has had to retire from racing and withdraw all his involvement with immediate effect owing to his very serious illness. Dick has been admitted to residential care and is extremely unlikely to ever be well enough to return home.

I count myself lucky to know all three of the men featured on this show, every time I learn something new and there are always laughs on the way. This sport is way too expensive not to be taken very seriously indeed as all three agree.

We changed our minds on the opening time as a number of riders advised they struggle with online access during office hours.

You will be able to book up to the first four meetings. Those of you who do the first three meetings will be emailed by the system later and have a 2-day opportunity to book the fifth meeting at Donington before any other riders. This will ensure that riders who are focusing on their championships will be able to book in advance of any other rider looking to do a future meeting as a one off.
