Last year, the very first King of the Baggers race set record audience numbers for MotoAmerica, on all social media platforms. So significant was the impact that the organizers decided to go for a full bagger racing series in 2021, with the second event scheduled for this weekend at Road America.

The immense success MotoAmerica’s King of the Baggers competition seems to have has inspired others into creating other, perhaps even more exciting such events. The most recent is the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association’s (AHRMA) annuncement for a new bagger class. 1 photo
But there’s an even bigger, more important such event coming our way: the Bagger Racing League (BRL). The series is scheduled to kick off in Salt Lake City, Utah, on June 25, with the Drag Specialities Battle of the Baggers.
Unlike King of the Baggers, which comes as a single race part of a larger weekend event, BRL is solely dedicated to baggers. Most importantly, with a little more than a month left until the start of the season, the organizers have announced the rules and regulations, but also the officials who will be overseeing the whole show.
