Our thoughts are with the family, friends and team of the rider who tragically lost his life today during Superbike qualifying at the North West 200.
At the request of his family, the rider has not been named at this time. The family has given their approval for the event to continue in his memory.
The road racing community is a close one, and today it stands together in grief. Our deepest sympathies are with all those affected. 🖤
#RoadRacing attracts fans of all ages and from all walks of life.
Some of the fans we spoke to at this year’s Briggs Equipment North West 200 (@north_west_200 ) were fairly new to the sport, while others had seen it all!
This was one of the best conversations we had all week, and it’s fair to say he knew his stuff. 😊
This was just before Storm Stacey (@stormstacey79 ) won the #Superstock Race, so the chat has aged pretty well, too!
Thank you to everyone who spoke to us on race week. It was fantastic to meet so many fans and people who give up their time for this brilliant sport.
Stay tuned for more #NW200 content!

Every rider focused.

Every engine waiting for the signal.
One week since race day at the 2026 Briggs Equipment North West 200, and the grid atmosphere still lives rent-free in our heads.

We recently held an All-Ireland #Sales Blitz Day this week, organised by Stephen Marshall, Group Strategic Development Manager! 💪
Teams from across the Briggs Group came together at the Briggs Equipment Training Academy in our Lisburn depot for a full day of #collaboration, reconnecting with customers, sharing opportunities, and building momentum together across Ireland.
From #MHE and #poweredaccess specialists to #rental teams, the energy in the room was brilliant — with every success over the phones celebrated loud and clear with a ring of the bell. 👏
Also heavily fuelled by sweets, coffee, and a little healthy competition throughout the day. 🍬☕
A fantastic atmosphere and a great example of teamwork across #TheBriggsGroup.

We caught up with a couple of proper road racing fans at the NW200, back year after year and hooked on the buzz. 🏁
Sunshine, sea air and the roar of the bikes on the Triangle, when the racing's on, there's nothing else like it.
In it for the buzz. And what a buzz it's been. 🧡
Proud to be the main sponsors of the North West 200.

The fans make the NW200. 🏁
From the grandstands to the paddock, from the hedges along the Triangle to the queues at the photo board, the energy this week has been something else.
Families three generations deep. First-timers and 30-year regulars. Fans over from the Isle of Wight, England, America, and just down the road in County Down.

We caught up with a fan over from the Isle of Wight at the NW200, three years running, and only getting more hooked. 🏁
From the Isle of Man TT to the Ulster, he's seen it all, but there's still nothing in the world quite like the Triangle.
Three words to sum it up?
Fantastic. Exhilarating. Exciting. 🧡
Proud to be the main sponsors of the North West 200.
