The high-octane thrill of competitive motorcycling is set to return to the East End this weekend, as the Bermuda Motorcycle Racing Club (BMRC) prepares to fire up the engines at the RUBiS Southside Raceway.
Following a brief hiatus in the domestic calendar, action at the St. David’s track will resume on Sunday, May 17th, promising a full slate of high-speed racing across multiple divisions. The event marks a significant point in the 2026 season as riders look to consolidate their positions in the championship standings.
The resumption of racing comes at a pivotal time for the sport in Bermuda. While local stars like Aeziah Divine and Jediah Cumbermack have been making waves on the international circuit in the UK this month, the domestic scene remains the bedrock of the island's talent.
Spectators can expect to see fierce competition in the hallmark classes, including the Scooter 70, Formula Open, and the ever-popular Minibike divisions, where the next generation of Bermudian racers continue to hone their craft.
The Southside venue is expected to be a hub of activity this weekend. In addition to the motorcycle action, the area has already seen a busy 2026 schedule, ranging from the traditional New Year's Day Motocross races to recent Bermuda Bicycle Association criteriums held on the same motorsport track.
For fans of pure speed, Sunday’s meet offers the perfect vantage point to witness the technical skill and bravery required to navigate the Southside circuit's demanding twists and turns.
