This year’s Classic Bikes at the Classic Motor Show sees the Ace Cafe Racer Concours, supported by Meguiar’s, which is open to motorcycles from all countries and of all ages – as long as they’ve been built in a cafe racer style. The winner receives VIP tickets and hotel accommodation for next year’s Ace Cafe Reunion plus a host of Meguiar’s products together with further special prizes.

Alongside the finalists of the Cafe Racer Concours will be the winning motorcycles from the Ace’s Triumph and Harley-Davidson Bike of the Year competition.

Keeping the spirit of Ace Cafe London alive is an Ace-themed catering area, which brings the spirit of the cafe up the M1 from London to the NEC. Accompanying the eating area is a rockabilly DJ who’s promising to be spinning swing, rock and roll and surfing tunes from the ‘40s through to the early ‘60s.
