VMCC 1000 Bikes

It is now recognised that this unique event provides the best line up of “Past Masters” and famous machines assembled every year in the UK. Previously this has included many unique happenings such as 4 times World Super Bike Champion Carl Fogarty MBE getting his “knee down” on a track for the first time in 10 years at our 2009 event! The 2010 event will be no exception as the continued assistance of Simon Hartland of the National Motorcycle Museum will help provide more unique machines and star riders than any other historic two wheeled event held in Europe. In 2010 this will include a very special track appearance by an overseas Multi World Champion who has not appeared on a racing machine at a UK track for many years! Watch this space!
