Classic Bike Racing has really taken off in recent years. Circuits around the UK hosts various events, and in Derbyshire are a couple of great circuits. There's Donnington and Darley Moor Racing tracks.
To visit the tracks on race days is an excellent way to get close to the action and to see what it's all about. Joining Racing Clubs is another interesting way to see the sport. Donnington and Darley Moor Race Tracks have their own website, detailing the racing calenders.
Another way to get started is to visit the Classic Motorcycle Racing Club website to see where and when their races are taking place. On their website is a detailed description about the club, the members and how to join and get involved. They have machines for sale as well as machines being sought after, Championships tables, race results and information. Membership costs range from £20.00 for UK non racing to £35.00 for UK membership. To read more visit the home of the, Classic Racing Motorcycle Club
