Temple Motorcycle Club hosts Brian Bell Memorial Race at Saintfield track

The attendance last year was phenomenal, and race organisers TMCC hope to see the same or better turnout this year.

The story of Brian Bell himself is by now infamous; the tragic loss of his life at such a young age and as such a talented rider has never been forgotten by his family, friends, and Temple Club members.

The title holder of the Brian Bell Memorial is a prestigious one sought after by many and won over the past six decades by a roster of legends in the world of grass track, scrambling, and motocross.

This year is likely to be no different. Galant riders will take on the challenge to become the next title holder of the Brian Bell Memorial Trophy.

Securing themselves a place in a local motorcycling hall of fame, respected and revered by many.

There will be the usual prize money and trophy’s to compete for; however, many riders would agree they are in it for the love of the sport, the camaraderie, and the thrill of the race.

For a spectacular evening of Northern Irish Motocross racing at its finest, fast paced entertainment for all the family, do not miss out on this year's Brian Bell Memorial Races.

It is the great honour of the Temple Motorcycle Club to host this event on their home ground at Laurelbank Motocross Park, and the club, as always, looks forward greatly to the double event again this year and two evenings of fun, safe racing for all to enjoy.
