Aaron Slight confirmed as Guest of Honour at the 24th Carole Nash October Stafford Classic Motorcycle Mechanics show

Kiwi Aaron Slight – undoubtedly the best rider never to win the World Superbike title – will be guest of honour at the 24^th Carole Nash Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Show at the Staffordshire County Showground on October 14-15.

As fast and smooth on the track as he was flamboyant and controversial off it, Slight will have some entertaining tales to share with the Stafford audience. And with more than a decade of racing in World Superbike for Bimota, Kawasaki and Castrol Honda teams, the friendly New Zealander will have plenty of great races to draw from.

The Carole Nash Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Show, the largest show of its kind in the world which majors on the later Japanese and European scene, promises the usual successful mix of almost 1000 trade and autojumble stalls, club stands, Bonhams’ record-breaking auction, live entertainment in the Classic Dirt Bike area and Classic Racer Grand Prix Paddock plus there’s the live Restoration Theatre.

Ticket prices are £12 for adults, £11 for seniors or £3 for under-12s if bought in advance. Parking is free. To find out more or to book advance tickets go to: www.staffordclassicbikeshows.com/october or call 01507 529529.
