It’s Stafford show time! And Bayliss is here!

This bumper edition of MCM means that the countdown to the biggest and best classic bike show in the world has begun. The big news this year is that Aussie superbike superstar Troy Bayliss will be coming over as the event’s star guest. Plus, there’s the usual packed halls of trade stands, rows of autojumble stalls, the best machines on club stands and concours displays, live action and restoration advice. Head to pages 20 through to 46 for the latest show news and previews, and at the centre of this issue is a 12-page pullout show guide.
