THE Ledbury Motorcycle Club has been awarded the hosting of the 2025 ACU International British Masters grass track championship event.

Due to take place on Sunday, August 3, at the usual venue of Sparrington Farm, Pencombe in Herefordshire, the Masters is the biggest event of the racing calendar regularly attracting large crowds and the star solo and sidecar riders of the sport.

Whilst preparations have already commenced for that very special August date, the Ledbury club's attention will be first firmly focussed on their season opener!

On Sunday, 13 April, it is the Herefordshire Grand Prix taking place at the same Sparrington Farm venue.

That one will also feature a full day of exciting racing for solo and sidecars.
