Avid motorcycle restorer and top bike journalist Bertie Simmonds said: “The show is the highlight of the classic calendar and this year’s promises to be the biggest and best ever.

“There’s a real buzz in and around the showground for the weekend as the great and good of motorcycling come together for two superb days showcasing all that is best about biking.

“I for one will be searching for parts for my RD350R project in the autojumble stands; it really is amazing what you can find.”

Along with the trade and jumble items available, the traditional Bonhams Autumn Stafford Sale has a selection of lots creating wide-ranging interest in the motorcycle community with the auction house featuring a consignment of Barry Sheene memorabilia.

British musician and Blur lead guitarist Graham Coxon has donated seven machines from his prize motorcycle collection to the sale also, with proceeds to benefit UK children’s charity the NSPCC.

Another highlight of the event is the appearance of a number of former race stars from across the generations. Frankie Chili, a Grand Prix and World Superbike star of the 1980s, 90s and 2000s is the show’s special guest of honour and he’ll be joined by Steve Plater, Jim Redman and Carl Fogarty who are all heading to Stafford in varying capacities.
