Grand Prix legend Giacomo Agostini will headline this summer’s GO Classic Bike Festival Ireland at Bishopscourt in Co Down. The 15-time world champion will ride an MV Agusta in the Ulster Grand Prix winners parade laps and mingle with fans in the paddock at the two-day event.
Moto Trial NI will be running a Classic Twin Shock Arena Trails event on both Saturday and Sunday. What we really want to know is do we think the ‘road race’ riders such as Ryan Farquhar think they can beat the seasoned ‘trials experts’ over a time trial course? Expect thrills and spills, and a fair bit of craic as we find out…
Fans can see the greatest collection of bikes in the country, some never seen before in one of the many display marquees around the paddock and festival areas.
The Classic Bike Festival Ireland is more than just a motorcycle event, its a Festival Experience that starts on the Friday night with live music and also again on the Saturday night. Both nights featuring different bands complemented by your host and DJ for the night Brian Moore.
