Joining Ryde will be an array of celebrated racers, including last year’s BSB Champion and 2024 runner-up Tommy Bridewell, Quattro Group British Supersport Champion Jack Kennedy, and GP2 Champion Owen Jenner, among many other top names.
One of the event’s highlights will be the chance to watch fan-favourite James Whitham interviewing racing icons live on the Black Horse Stage. It promises to be an entertaining, informative session, covering the intense highs and lows of the season and teasing some of the upcoming changes for the 2025 BSB season.
The star-studded roster for BSB Day doesn’t stop with Ryde and Bridewell. The event will also welcome 2024 British Superbike Pathway Champion Lewis Rollo, Pirelli National Sportbike Champion Richard Cooper, R&G British Talent Cup Champion Lucas Brown, and Tracker Kawasaki British Superteen Champion Kalvin Kelly.
