2018 Broadford Bike Bonanza
The event, now a pilgrimage for so many, will again be held over EasterThe 10th running of the Broadford Bike Bonanza, a celebration of all things classic motorcycling, will be held at the State Motorcycling Complex in Broadford (Vic) from March 30 until April 1.
The event will include a tribute to the late and legendary Neil (Billy) Street OAM and his contribution to speedway as a rider, manager and engine manufacturer. Three-time world speedway champion Jason Crump will be riding, as will his dad Phil Crump on the four-valve SR4 bikes Neil built. Loads of other stars have signed on, too, and the speedway exotica coming out is mind blowing.
Vincent will be well represented on the road circuit with recreated Series A models, the Irving Vincent show from the brains of the Horner Bros, and the howling supercharged speedway sidecars from the Heavyside stable.
Trials returns with a special set of sections, the enduro team has a gnarly track ready to go; BSA Bantams will be on display, and there’s a huge Show ‘n’ Shine in the motocross sheds.
The Saturday night gala dinner will feature interviews with international road racing legend Barry Smith, Isle of Man TT sidecar riders Mick Alton and Chrissy Clancy, the Crump family and Phil Irving’s widow Edith, and there will also be Motorcycling Australia awards presentations.
Catching the free shuttle buses around the circuit gets you to all the tracks, and you’ll hear the expert commentary from Bob Johnstone at speedway and Will Hagon at the road race circuit.
