The term Classic Racing in the United Kingdom is generally accepted as motorcycle racing as defined under the rules and or auspices of the Classic Racing Motorcycle Club (CRMC). This was established in 1981 and mostly caters for solos and sidecars manufactured in the period 1945–1972.
Motorcycles from an earlier era, including a Pre-1935 class, are raced by the Vintage Motor Cycle Club (VMCC). The VMCC race classes are mostly for Pre-1963 bikes.
The Mountain Circuit-'Manx Grand Prix'
The Manx Grand Prix, held on the Isle of Man, is considered by Classic racers worldwide as the ultimate classic racing event. This involves three or more laps around the famous 37 ¾ mile long 'Mountain' circuit. The Manx GP is traditionally held at the end of August.

The Lansdowne Classic Series hosts the official British Championship for pre-1964 Grand Prix 500cc machines, their other classes serve 350 and 500 machines of the period with various modification regulations.
