So as the 2025 Sidecar Seasons is just around the corner and what a great season it’s looking for my Chassis in Bemsee, British & world Championship races. 💪🏁

Over the next 2 months I’ll be looking at making my F2 chassis a full spec TT bike with some new ideas I’ve been thinking about. The new TT bike will also have a bag fuel cell like we use on our F1 chassis. (I have 1 order coming so if you want to join this order please get in touch.)

Also over 2025 I’ll be machining/fabricating a lot more F1 parts for stock to speed up delivery times.

Now the reason for this post is….. I’m probably going to be closed all Dec & the first week of Jan 2026. So this means if you’re thinking of a new Chassis for 2026 you need to order in time so it’s finished in Nov 2025.

Have a great 2025 and see you all soon. 💪🏁

After about 10 years of very good work in the production of LCR sidecars, Ben and Tom Birchall decided to go in a new direction. Each of the motorcycles they produced was at least as good as one of my own production. I would like to thank them very much for this good work.
From this year, Simon Perillat from France will continue the production of the LCR F1 and also F2 sidecars. Simon has many years of experience and has already produced several successful LCR F1 bikes. He has just finished and delivered the 2025 bike for world champion Schlosser. New F2 vehicles are also in the works. He has a large spare parts warehouse for older and current LCR bikes. Work can also be carried out on vintage machines.

WIRRAL 100 IS BACK!!         

Anglesey – 21st to 23rd March 2025
Since we published our decision to suspend the Club’s racing activities, we have been inundated with messages of sadness, sympathy, understanding and best wishes from the ACU, from other clubs, from the circuit-owners, and of course the W100 paddock community at large, all of whom wished us to continue operating if at all possible. In addition five members (including three present-day riders) have stepped forward to join the Committee,  and we understand others could follow; in their discussions with us they have indicated their keenness to help the Club reconnect with its riders and supporters to make our paddock a much larger, more united and happier place, in particular by improving our marketing and social media presence.

Now the most significant news! One particular message was from friends at the NG Road Racing club, offering to provide short-term clerical and other assistance to enable us to re-group and to organise a W100 test day & new riders’ course and race meeting at Anglesey on 21st to 23rd March 2025. We are delighted to report that we have accepted that generous offer and the intention is to finalise the arrangements and to publish the regulations and entry forms, and proposed timetables, within the next few weeks. We are, of course, still in the planning phase but we expect that the meeting will include our usual classes, and we are pleased to report that it will also include the first round of the 2025 ACU UltraLightweight series.

The W100 plan, with the encouragement of the ACU’s Road Race Commission, is to seek further race dates in 2025, but this, of course, will be dependant on the availability of circuits and particularly the support of our own officials, marshals and riders at this first meeting; we are hopeful that the timing of this meeting is such that it could also attract riders from other championships, including BSB support classes, NG of course, and those of other clubs, particularly the local clubs in the North West, all looking to benefit from significant amounts of track-time ahead of their 2025 seasons.

As a Club we have undoubtedly made mistakes in the past and now we can only apologise for that, but we hope now is the time, not to look backwards, but to look forwards – so we would ask everyone to please support us in our efforts to get the Club back on a firm footing.

We will re-open our Club membership platform shortly, in particular to assist those riders seeking to renew their ACU race licences, so watch this space.

And finally and very importantly, we are organising a 2024 Championship Trophies Presentation & Dinner, hopefully in February. The date and the venue will be finalised shortly and published online. Unfortunately the timeline will be tight, but as we now have a new Social Secretary, Helen Buckley, and a new Media Secretary, Sarah Knowles, we are now in a position to contact the successful riders, and they and the officials & marshals will soon receive personal invitations to the Presentation Evening & three-course sit-down Dinner, and we hope that, if at all possible, they will be able to give our new ‘team’ their full support and encouragement.  Thank you.
