The first event took place in January at Donington Park, where 2024 Bennetts British Superbike Champion Kyle Ryde joined 50 lucky guests for an evening of insight and storytelling. Attendees had the rare opportunity to hear Kyle recount his most memorable moments from the 2024 season, including the intense final minutes of the BSB title-deciding race at Brands Hatch.

In February, the action moved to the Lakeland Motor Museum, where 23-time TT winner John McGuinness and 14-time TT sidecar winner Ben Birchall welcomed 20 guests for an exclusive tour. The experience offered attendees a unique chance to explore the museum’s extensive collection of motorcycling history, including its dedicated Isle of Man TT exhibit, which features several of McGuinness’ legendary race bikes.
