Race the Waves

Hear the roar of the engines! Watch vintage vehicles and motorbikes race along Bridlington South Beach!

I am posting this to see if anybody would be interested in checking out this event. The racing is held over the weekend, but I am posting this, should anybody be interested in joining me on Sunday to observe this vintage event. There is no actual cost other than transport to Bridlington.
Below are more details of the event taken from the promotional info....

Race the Waves is one of East Yorkshire's biggest events. It returns to Bridlington on Thursday 12th June to Sunday 15th June 2025.

This is a unique event within the UK motoring calendar. It is a tribute to the past when Yorkshire beaches were the earliest places for land speed record attempts. Vehicles perform ‘spirited drag-races’ in pairs over a 200 yard course marked in the fresh tidal sand. Motorcycles are often in groups of 4 or 5 as they leave the start line.

Generally, the races are started by waving a chequered flag. The racers can either opt to organise themselves or randomly arrive at the starting area and go with the flow. All the while, a commentary is provided by the 'man on the microphone' Graham Beckwith. Race The Waves draws on the historical influences from the early UK Motor Speed Trials and the American desert and street drag races.
