We show off a hand full of the UK's best Freestyle Motocross riders, doing the best tricks possible to simply stun the crowd! Then we add a pinch of sideways action, with the a selection of the best motorcycle drifters, racing around a dirt track, on bikes that accelerate to 60MPH in the same time as a formula one racing car, but with no brakes to slow them down! All this is mixed in with a whole host of family entertainment throughout the day, makes it a perfect day out for adults and the children! Here’s what The Freestyle Show has to offer...... Main Feature Freestyle Motocross- The most entertaining FMX riders from around Europe will be showing their skills in the air in the main feature of the show. A wide selection of freestyle motocross tricks such as the “superman seat grab”, “Indian air”, “heel-clicker”, “rock solid”, “double-nac”, “switch blade”, “kiss of death”, “lazy boy” and many more. Many of these moves will result in the rider exiting their seat, taking their hands off the handlebars and rotating their body around the bike! The riders will compete for the crowd’s appreciation individually, as well as putting on a "choreographed" show which includes 3-5 riders hitting air at the same time and backflips! Support Features Speedway 'Drift' Racing A selection of some of the best and most exciting racers, four laps a race, of all out speed, control, excitement and thrills as 4 riders go for the chequered flag!

SteveLyric2 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Interesting in the video of 'Whats on at the Show' there is footage of last year's GP series and of Chris Holder and Antonio Lindback?! Are they both appearing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Freestyle Show UK Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 We used some footage off YouTube as we don’t have any of our own at the moment. The line-up is yet to be announced, but we can confirm that it will include a mixture of fans favourites and stars of the Elite League. We are due to announce some of the line up in time for Cardiff weekend and also a major Midland based sponsor of the event. I would also like to add that we have had tickets on sale actively for 12 days, and we have had a very good response from the general public via Ticketmaster and our website. So expect to see a lot of new faces being amazed by some sideways Speedway racing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iris123 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 (edited) Yes.Not that we might see a series of freestyle/speedway meetings around the country like? Edited May 16, 2013 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Freestyle Show UK Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 The Speedway feature of the show is being run by the Leicester promotion, and we have worked with them to integrate Speedway into our show. Therefore under correct governing, licensing and insurance. Unlike the 'series' that I think you may be referring to. Please see September Fixtures on the official speedwaygb site for confirmation of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Ok,super.Hope the crowds flock in as i am sure it will be a spectacular show having seen this sort of thing in Germany.The only problem with the one i went to was the speedway was overshadowed by the exciting jumps.But that was down to a poor concrete track i am sure the leicester track will be much better!!

The Freestyle Show UK Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 The Speedway feature will be presented differently to what the fans will be used to seeing. We have sold a lot of tickets to the general public already with the help of Ticketmaster, many of whom don't really know what Speedway is, so we want Speedway to come across as a modern, fresh and exciting sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavinpjones Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 You say the speedway will be presented differently to what the fans are used to seeing. How will it be presented and what will be different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 We shall see ...................................... :unsure: Asked permission If it gets a few extra non speedway people following the sport then all the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Leslie Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 The only thing that confuses me is that the advert and the website both say the event is at Leicester City. Surely that's not right? They can't possibly be building a track round the pitch for one event....It's got to be at Leicester Speedway hasn't it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
