A few days ago, we revealed the Ducati Stage lineup, now, we’re moving to the second of five venues at the ABR Festival: The Bridgestone Stage.

Hosted by Simon and Lisa Thomas of 2RideTheWorld, the Bridgestone Stage is about relaxed conversations, where questions are always welcome, and often lead to moments you won’t experience anywhere else.

This year’s lineup features some of the most respected names in motorcycling, including Ted Simon, whose books (Jupiter’s Travels, Riding High, etc.) helped define modern adventure biking, and Chris Birch, one of the world’s most famous off road riders.

Thanks to our friends at McAMS, four-time World Superbike champion Carl Fogarty will also be stepping onto the stage, reflecting on life at the top of motorbike racing, and the time he now spends out on the trails with friends.

So, if you have ever wanted to ask your biking heroes something directly, or hear the story behind a moment that stuck with you, this is where it happens.

Access to every single one of these talks is included with your ticket to the ABR Festival. Not got yours yet? Don’t wait much longer, they’re selling fast and won’t be available on the gate. Book yours here
