Motor bike endurance racing is at the heart of the latest news in the world of two wheels. The Motor Bike, Scooter and Quad Show opens its doors to the general public today, and it devotes a lot of space to this branch of bike racing. In particular, a Le Mans 24 Hours/Bol d’Or joint stand (Hall 8, alley E, stand 32) gives it fantastic visibility.
All the big manufacturers are displaying bikes that raced in the 2013 event on their stands. Honda has just made a major announcement about its return with a line-up consisting of Sébastien Gimbert, Julien da Costa and Freddy Foray!
The Japanese giant has raised its ambitions and it is hoping to topple its major rivals: Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki and BMW, which will all be back racing in endurance in 2014 with stronger teams.
Less than three months after the last race endurance lovers can already project themselves into the 37th Le Mans 24 Hours for Motor Bikes, which will take place on 20-21 September 2014, the fourth round on the 2014 FIM World Endurance Championship calendar.
So what better Christmas present for any enthusiast than a ticket for the general enclosures? From today, Tuesday 3rd December, they will be available at the pre-sale price of 50 euros instead of 63 euros (48 euros) for the ACO members).
