Head for Europe, while you can…

15 16 September Bol d’or, Circuit Paul Ricard, France

A new Endurance World Championship starts in the south of France – yes, they run it over winter and there will be a Malaysian round in December 2019. But for us it feels like that last chance to ride to the sun before winter. Still one of the greatest races in the world. fimewc.com

15 16 September World Superbike Championship, Portimao, Spain

You haven’t missed anything. There has been the usual massive gap in the middle of the WSBK calendar. If you don’t want to ride to the sun then a package trip to the Algarve might be a nice idea. You can mention the motorcycle race when you get there. worldsbk.com
