The ultimate destination for classic bike lovers…
Welcome to The International Classic MotorCycle Show sponsored by Carole Nash, one of the true institutions of the season, an event which we all look forward to for its fabulous array of motorcycles, plus the mixture of renewing old acquaintances, making new ones, buying and selling, looking and commenting, generally just savouring the sights, sounds and even smells (Castrol R in the fire-up area; premix in the trials, et al) of ‘Stafford’. From its beginning at Belle Vue in 1980, now an incredible 44 years ago, the show has continued to grow and evolve, all the while maintaining its core, what makes it special – that being the unbridled enthusiasm and shared passion of the vast majority of those present on the showground; in short, a shared love (and it is a love) of classic motorcycles. Whether you’re into pre-unit Triumphs, cammy Nortons, vintage Raleighs, Ariel fours or BSA Bantams, or whatever, here, at the show, you’ll be at home among your tribe. There is a dizzying array of machinery to pour over, and time to reminisce and be inspired by the breadth of two-wheeled history up for delectation. Plus, of course, there’s lots of things to spend your pounds on, whether it’s a bit for an ongoing project – or indeed buying a new project. And everything in between. It's not all static either, with various displays and start-ups, plus the on-stage entertainment, with our star guests providing insights and stories from their careers. Great stuff all round, in what promises to be a full and memorable weekend. So, if you’re looking to relax and engage in lively conversations with fellow enthusiasts and racing icons, connect with knowledgeable club members and snag unbeatable trade and autojumble deals, look no further than the Stafford Classic Bike Show—it's where all your motorcycle passions converge. See you there.
