IT’S BIKING season, folks!

Check these out…

What: British Superbikes

Where: Brands Hatch

When: Friday 13th – Sunday 15th April

Info: Britishsuperbike.com

This one doesn’t need much explanation… The Brands Hatch round of BSB is back, promising intense action on the 1.2-mile ‘bullring’ Indy circuit. Over the weekend there will be two BSB races and a packed programme of support class action.

What: Bomb Run

The ‘Bomb run’ is hosted by BRAVE (Bikers Respect All Veterans Equally), with all proceeds going towards injured veterans.

With food, drink, entertainment and camping waiting at the end of the 55-mile route, this is one fun run not to be missed!

What: Havant Mayor’s Classic Vehicle run

Where: Havant, Hampshire

Info: www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/people/classic-car-and-motorbike-rally-to-return-this-weekend-and-there-s-still-time-to-sign-up-1-8453069

Despite the somewhat boring name, this is an unmissable event for classic motorcycle fans.

Hundreds of pre-1990s vehicles will gather at Havant Borough Council’s Plaza car park from 8.30am cars, before departing at 10am. The parade will take them to Fort Purbrook on Portsdown Hill Road, where the vehicles will go on display from 11.45am.

What: Southampton Bike Night

Where: Southampton city centre, SO142BY

When: Thursday, April 19

Info: www.southamptonbikenight.co.uk

Southampton Bike Night kicked off for 2018 just a week ago, and hundreds of bikers turned up, despite the bitter cold.

With temperatures set to be in the twenties on Thursday, hundred more are likely to show. There’s a reason it’s the South Coast’s premier bike night.
