With support
classes covering Period 1 - Veteran (up to December 31st, 1919), Period 2 - Vintage
(January 1st, 1920 to December 31st, 1945), Period 3 - Classic (January 1st, 1946
to December 31st, 1962), Period 4 - Post Classic (January 1st, 1963 to December 31st, 1972) and Period 5
- Forgotten Era
(January 1st, 1973 to December 31st, 1982), there were forty (40) events
interspersed between the four International Challenge races.
I have recorded
race images from a variety of solo races in this section to give some idea
of the scope of machinery in action throughout the event.

This class includes Vintage
motorcycles manufactured between 1st January 1920 and 31st December 1945. I have
'digitally aged' some of the images in this class.
