Imagine getting tackled at 30mph… ⚽️🏍️

While the world is watching the World Cup, we’re looking back at one of the most unusual versions of football ever played.

This is motorcycle football, played on a Levis 346cc motorcycle, a British bike that became part of a sport that’s every bit as chaotic as it sounds.

Believe it or not, motorcycle football was a real thing, combining two of Britain’s great loves - motorsport and football.

You can discover more fascinating stories from motoring history at the Cotswold Motoring Museum in Bourton-on-the-Water.

Would you give it a go?

Who remembers rushing home to watch Brum after school? 🚗💨

Brum first appeared on our screens in 1991 and is still one of the most loved attractions at the Cotswold Motoring Museum.

🚗✨ We absolutely love it when previous owners—or those with a special connection to our vehicles—pop in to see us and share their stories.

Last week we were delighted to welcome Pearl, the former owner of our newly arrived Clément‑Bayard. It was a real joy to hear her wonderful memories and learn more about the car’s history straight from someone who knew it so well.

Why not come along and meet “Clemmy” for yourself this bank holiday weekend? We’re open every day from 10am, with last entry at 5.15pm, and the museum is the perfect place to while away a few happy hours.

🍦 Don’t forget to treat yourself to something delicious from Bertie, our ice cream van – and maybe even a cheeky hot chocolate too! ☕

We’d love to see you!
