A FESTIVAL to celebrate 20 years since the re-launch of Triumph motorcycles will take place at Mallory Park this autumn.
While the main event will be at the Leicestershire racing circuit on September 18, there will also be activities at the company’s state of the art manufacturing facility nearby in Hinckley.
A full programme of on and off track activities will be laid on, including a round of the ‘Triumph Triple Challenge’, special invitation races featuring Triumph’s Street Triple and Daytona 675 motorcycles plus shows from professional stunt riders.
Off-track, visitors will be able to view the latest range of Triumph motorcycles, together with a selection of some of the UK’s best customised models. Key bikes from the company’s history will also be on display, as part of a unique exhibition exploring 20 years of Hinckley.
There will also be opportunities for visitors to ride the latest line-up of bikes from the demonstration fleet, both on and off track.
