This weekend, British motocross fans will be able to watch a grand prix of the Sidecarcross World Championship on their home turf for the first time in 13 years.
The event at Cusses Gorse in Winterbourne Gunner, which will also include the European Quad Championship, will be bittersweet as it is taking place soon before the permanent closure of the facility on Saturday, September 30 after 22 years in operation, as the landowner has requested the land back for agricultural purposes.

Cusses Gorse said on its Facebook page: “Make sure you bring your air horns to support the British crews on home soil for the first time in 13 years.”
Waterlooville Motorcycle Club, which is organising the event, said on its Facebook page: “The 13-year wait is almost over.
“Your chance to come & support our crews as they take on the best in our backyard. The team at Cusses Gorse have prepared an awesome new spectator-friendly venue for both riders & spectators to enjoy.”
