ROLLERBURN

The good news keeps coming!

Sideburn magazine, the world’s most suave motorcycle magazine, is organising and promoting a one-off, cross-genre event to go down in history.
Rollerburn is a festival of two-wheeled death traps and roller derby vixens. On Saturday 19 November 2011, at Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire, we will host nine hours of family entertainment incorporating a full roller derby match, followed by the world’s first (and probably last) Indoor Rollerball drag race: three lightning fast racers riding three motorcycles towing three fearless roller girls. One winner.
One of the confirmed racers is Guy Martin, arguably Britain’s favourite bike racer, Isle of Man TT hero, star of TT 3D – Closer to the Edge and the BBC primetime series – The Boat That Guy Built. His attendance guarantees a sell-out crowd.

In addition we have an unforgettable live set from the UK’s premier garage punk ‘craperet’ act, The Stags; an invite-only show of the finest custom bikes; dealer stalls; bar and launch of Sideburn 9.


If you're a business looking to have a vendor stall or find out about sponsorship opportunities, get in touch with us. It's going to be wild.

Fantastic idea. And kudos for the term, "craperet." I tried to talk rollergirls of Austin into this when I first saw the Rollerball/burn photo a while back... maybe this will help the cause. Maybe we can make world teams and settle all differences this way in the future. I nominate Guy Martin for the "Jonathan" role, if he feels like showing up. (BTW, if Sideburn doesn't take over the magazine world I'll be very surprised. I prefer it to anything on the news stand.)
