SUMMER BIKE BASH - CADWELL PARK featuring the 40th ANNIVERSARIES for SUZUKI GSXR, RG500/400 & EFE SATURDAY 19 & SUNDAY 20 JULY 2025

WELCOME TO THE SUMMER BIKE BASH!

The Summer Bike Bash is open to all makes of machines and for all bikers to enjoy a biking weekend at one of the best circuits in the country with lots of tracktime & displays, and to celebrate arguably two of the most iconic motorcycling anniversaries possible . . . .

SUZUKI GSX-R 40TH ANNIVERSARY

Suzuki created the start of one of the most legendary blood lines in the motorcycling world when they built the first GSX-R750 in 1985, and over the forthcoming four decades continued to evolve the GSX-R family with some of the best loved & market-leading bikes ever built, leading the way with new machines until the present day. The Summer Bike Bash will be celebrating this milestone and although we'll follow the general format for all CBT events, the event will also cater for ALL Suzuki GSXRs from 1985-2025 with a very special GSX-R only track session. We also plan to host a GSX-R (& RG500) parade and photo shoot on the circuit (TBC) which will be open for all track riders, club riders and spectators alike, so everyone can be a part of this memorable event. More details to follow

SUZUKI RG500/400 ANNIVERSARY

The RG500 was one of the most successful Grand Prix machines of its time, and the success in racing spawned the building of crazy road going replicas (for all the Japanese manufacturers). However, the Suzuki RG500 was the most powerful of all the GP500 replicas when it was available from 1985 to 1987, and since then has become a revered and sought after machine with a dedicated following across the world. We'll also be welcoming its little brother the RG400 so hope to see all RG500s / RG400s and their owners who are encouraged to join in the Summer Bike Bash to celebrate the 40th Anniversary, where riders will be able to take part in track sessions, parades and displays throughout the weekend. More details to follow

SUZUKI EFE ANNIVERSARY

We'll also be celebrating the powerhouse 1100EFE which also celebrates it's 40th Anniversary where the event will be hosting the European Rally for this much-loved bruiser

STAR GUESTS

We'll be welcoming two guests over the SBB weekend who are synonymous with the GSX-R; John 'JR" Reynolds and Michael Neeves!

AMICALE SPIRIT OF SPEED

A huge highlight of the Summer Bike Bash will be welcoming the Amicale Spirit of Speed for their first visit to Cadwell Park. A global group of genuine race bike enthusiasts including Grand Prix, MotoGP, WSBK, BSB and TT-Fi, they will be riding an eye-watering selection of rare & ex-factory machines in some very special race bike parades across the weekend, and giving everyone the very rare opportunity to see these amazing bikes up close in the paddock

THE CIRCUIT / TRACK SESSIONS

The famous 2.1 mile rollercoaster will play host to all the trackday machinery with non-stop action from a superb array of motorcycles from vintage to modern classics, and standard to highly modified, with a mix of track sessions and parades throughout Saturday and Sunday.

THE PADDOCK

The Cadwell Park paddock will be another hive of activity shared between the track bikes (which will be a show in its own right) and the many machines on display from Clubs and individuals, including all the Suzuki GSX-Rs and RG500s present to celebrating their 40th Anniversaries

FREE LUNCHTIME PARADES

The Summer Bike Bash will offer special parades for all GSX-R and RG500 riders (track, club, trade and spectators) the chance to experience 3 laps of Cadwell Park circuit completly free of charge. All riders will simply need to register on the day
