Our Story

“BEARS” stands for British, European, American Racing and Supporters.

The BEARS concept was founded in the early 1980s in Christchurch, New Zealand by the late John Britten and fellow enthusiasts who wanted to see non-Japanese machinery compete on equal footing in dedicated classes.

BEARS Australia was established in 1991 after a group of riders split from the Ducati Owners Club of NSW to form a broader racing platform for British, European and American motorcycles.

Since then, Oz BEARS has grown into a respected racing club affiliated with Motorcycling NSW and operating within the Motorcycling Australia framework.
