Classic MX to be celebrated at 2012 Broadford Bike Bonanza

The tribute night will take place in the Speedway Shed at the State Motorcycle Sports Complex, Broadford, and is billed to be a once in a lifetime reunion with all your old race rivals, sponsors, tuners, mates and worshippers present. Event Organiser Peter Drakeford is looking forward to introducing this 'never before seen' event to this year's HBBB.

The evening will officially start at 6pm and will consist of interviews of the old stars of the era including Jeff Leisk and legend Ray Owen, films of our old races and racers and the best part - catching up with the old faces you might not have seen for 30 or 40 years!

The reunion will also feature a special display of Honda Motocross models from the ground-breaking 'Elsinore' series of 1973 to the last of the air cooled models of 1984. Jeff Leisk will put on a very special display of Leisk's 1989 Honda Factory RC 500 and his Aussie title winning Hondas will be 'eye candy' for us all.

Unofficial motocross historian, tragic and illustrator Roger Harvey is compiling a 120-page book of unpublished photos of the stars of the era, which will be on sale at the opening. Limited numbers are available and are sure to be instant collectors' items.

Bar facilities and a fish and chip dinner will be available, or BYO on the night.
