BMRC Season Opener Coming This Sunday
The Bermuda Motorcycle Racing Club [BMRC] is kicking off its 2015 race season this Sunday, June 14th at Southside Motorsports Park. Gates open at 9am for participants and racing starts at 1pm. General admission is free or Pit Passes are available for $10.
“There are new classes this year including Super Stock Mini Youth, Super Stock Mini Adult, and Super Mini Open,” the club said.
“The focus is on low-cost racing to increase rider involvement and keep competition tight – as demonstrated by the amazing show the Super Mini Open class put on in the BKC’s Keen Ltd. Dockyard Grand Prix in March. The other classes are Street Bike Open, Street Bike Super Stock, Mini GP, Scooter 70, Moto 3, and Formula Xtreme.
“This will also be the first year that motorcycle racing in Bermuda will be live streamed around the globe. Portions of the race will be broadcast worldwide via Twitter’s new Periscope mobile app.
“This will bring exposure to not just BMRC racing but to Bermuda as a whole, promoting a motorcycling vacation destination for the thousands of passionate bikers that follow the BMRC on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
“To view the racing in real-time, download the new Periscope app, sign in with your Twitter account [or create a new one], follow @bmrc_bda, and tune in on Sunday.
“As we all celebrate our Bermuda National Heroes this weekend, this will be a great, free, family-friendly event for Sunday afternoon, with concessions available at the track for your convenience. With new classes, racers, bikes, and social media exposure the 2015 BMRC racing season will be one to watch and follow all summer long.”
