Showcase your two wheeled pride and joy

This November’s Footman James Classic Motorbike Show is looking to find the very best examples of classic bikes down the ages when it rides into Birmingham’s NEC from 12th to 14th November. The Pride of Ownership contest is aimed at individual owners of both standard and modified motorcycles who wish to showcase their pride and joy.

Supported by RealClassic magazine and Meguiars, just 50 bikes can enter for the Pride of Ownership, which has seven categories covering bikes from all countries and of all ages. The categories are: Best Pre-1946; Best 1946-1959; Best 1960-1969; Best 1970-on; Best British; Best European; and, Best Japanese.

Judges from RealClassic magazine will select the best bikes, which can win a selection of prizes including magazine subscriptions and products from the Meguiars bike-only range. The overall winner will be featured in RealClassic magazine and all category winners will appear on the magazine’s website.

The Pride of Ownership winners will be announced on the final day of the Footman James Classic Motorbike Show on the live interview stage by one of the show’s special guests.

Entrants will need to have their bike in place on Thursday 11th November and it will need to remain on static display until after the show closes on the 14th November. Each finalist will receive entrance passes for throughout the show.
