Private owners of Retro and Cafe Racer motorcycles are being invited to show their skills at a concours event in March.

The Race Retro Concours will be held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry, during the main show, which runs from March 12th to 14th.

Bike insurance policyholders can enter into a range of categories, including Best Cafe Racer, Best Pre-1946 Bike and Best British Race Bike, with machines being judged by an expert panel who will hand out trophies, rosettes and product packs.

Winners will be presented with their prizes by eight-time GP World Champion Phil Read MBE.

But those planning on entering their model might want to hurry - only 50 bikes will be allowed to take part on a first come, first served basis.

The event will be themed around the Norton marque, which is celebrating its 60th anniversary and as such a range of the firm's models and racers will be on hand.

Among the top names in attendance will be Peter Williams, John ‘Mooneyes’ Cooper, Trevor Nation and Keith Heckles.

Bike insurance policyholders might also like to check out the private collection of 50 motorcycles from H&H Auctions that will go under the hammer during the event.
