The Classic 2025 Racing Season and 125 Championship

Hello and welcome to my page.

I am James (21 years old) and I love to race classic motorcycles. I am currently trying to raise funds to help me continue to compete in the 2025 classic motorcycle racing season.

My racing history:

Last year was my first proper season of racing I was very lucky to be allowed to ride Derek Skinners Yamaha TZ125 and compete in the British Historic Racing Championship. I thoroughly enjoyed the season - it had its ups and downs - but I managed to get some great results and ended up winning the championship on the last race of the season, very exciting!

I have also learnt so much from the lovely people I have had the pleasure to meet at the track and race days, which has helped me build up confidence and get faster.

Unfortunately this year has not been as expected with some unexpected costs and repairs which has mean and I have been funding my own riding with the help of Derek providing the bike and Don Briggs mechanical expertise.

The costs of a race weekend are forever increasing and entries alone are now £300 that's before fuel, wear etc. For the rest of the season I would ideally love to raise £1000 which will allow me to enter 3 more rounds.

I currently have no sponsors so any sponsorship or donation would be greatly appreciated and if people could share this to get as much exposure as possible it would mean the world do me. I am more than happy to place advertising on my helmet, bike or leathers if anyone would be interested.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and hopefully with help, I will be able to get back out racing again soon.

James
