Six passionate classic motorcycle enthusiasts have defeated hundreds of other competitors from all over Britain to reach the final round of the Classic Bikers Club Bike of the Year Award. It’s now up to the public to vote for their favourite and the overall national champion will be announced at the 19th Carole Nash Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Show on October 20-21 at Stafford County Showground.  

The finalists have been chosen by a panel of the nation’s top classic motorcycle experts. Each machine is an engineering marvel and the product of its owner’s mechanical prowess, mingled with lots of love, care and attention to detail. The winner will get £1000 worth of goods from Grand Prix Legends and a prestigious bespoke trophy made from components of John McGuinness’ works Honda Fireblade motorcycle.
