ReplyDeleteWill a Bullet qualify for the inappropriate road bike class?
Chris.Yes. By inappropriate we mean anything that isn't a lightweight dirt bike or supermoto, so BMW GS, Yam R1, Enfield, anything goes. It's a bit of fun and time in the Sideburn spotlight. G
ReplyDeleteWow! That was about time ... I can finally race my BSA (maybe I can even talk Jake into this)!!!
ReplyDeleteAny rules on helmets, boots and clothing?
Hans
HANS! That's great. You were on my invite list. We're going to make it as easy for people to get involved, so the minimum of rules and regs. If you're daft enough to race in it, we're daft enough to let you. G
ReplyDeleteSounds awesome dudes !
