The Bike Shed began with a single idea: create a motorcycle show that celebrated bikes and the people who build and ride them. Long before they had a permanent venue, a small group of a dozen amateur enthusiasts came together to organise the first event — a gathering dedicated to motorcycle design, creativity, and culture. Back then the focus was on café racers, brat-style builds, scramblers and street trackers.
Today the show celebrates the full spectrum of two-wheeled culture. Alongside custom builds you’ll find adventure bikes, dirt machines, race and track bikes, street bikes, electric motorcycles, and vintage and classic machines.
The first show in 2013 took place beneath a series of railway arches just a few hundred metres from the current London home. 55 bikes were on display that day and they welcomed around 3,000 visitors. With a pop-up barbershop, tattoo artists, street food vans, bars and carefully curated retail, the atmosphere was buzzing from the start.
More than a decade later the Bike Shed Moto Show has grown into something much bigger. The most recent event welcomed over 18,000 visitors who came to see more than 300 carefully selected custom and unique motorcycles. The weekend now features multiple bars and food vendors, independent retailers, live bands and ShedTalk panel conversations recorded live at the show and later released on YouTube.
Despite the growth, the spirit behind the event remains the same. The show is still organised by the core BSMC team and supported by an incredible volunteer crew made up of members and former staff. Every year staff work hard to improve the experience while keeping the show welcoming, authentic and great value for both visitors and exhibitors.
