FOOD&FUEL: THE VICTORY LAP
Food&Fuel is heading back to Bicester Motion on October 10th for the third and final course of 2026. Consider this the "cool down lap" after a year of redlining it—the ultimate end-of-year wind-down for those who prefer the smell of high-octane over pumpkin spice.
We’re trading the "new year, new me" intensity for a "same me, just slightly more relaxed" vibe. Expect some genuinely impressive machines, the kind of street food that makes your trainer cry, and a few special guests who—like most of us—are just here for the atmosphere and the snacks.
Our story started right here at Bicester. If you survived the 2025 season with us, you know the drill: it’s about bringing people together to obsess over cars, indulge in great food, and enjoy company that’s (mostly) better than a rainy Tuesday on the M40.
