Rounds of the Landsdowne series will feature pre-1963 machines – Manx Nortons, Matchless G50s and AJS 7Rs.

The pre-1987 races are based on the New Zealand/Australian BEARS (British European American Racing and Supporters), initiated by the late John Britten.

The event is for race bikes, developed from machines available to the public at dealers' showrooms, as opposed to factory purpose-built race bikes.

On Saturday, there will be a special parade of road-legal Laverda motorcycles, from the British Laverda Owners Club.

The parade will be lead by Piero Laverda, former road racer and founder of the company.

He will be riding a Laverda Barcelona, owned and raced by Austen Kear.
