WHAT IS BRIT JAM?

Brit Jam is The British Iron Association's annual motorcycle show and swap meet.
It is held every year, on the third Sunday in August. Brit Jam is Connecticut's premier showcase to see a great collection of British Motorcycles, along with a lot of other brands of Motorcycles, who compete in the show.
Brit Jam is an "All Types/ All Brands" motorcycle show, where people from all over, bring, or ride their show quality motorcycles and compete for "Best in Category", "Best in Show" and Best of the Best" trophies. Each year hundreds of motorcycle collectors, builders and enthusiasts show off their best, oldest or most unusual motorcycles from among British, American, Japanese, Racers, Dirt track, and always a crowd favorite, a "Bitsa" category. (A "Bitsa" motorcycle is made from "bits and pieces" of lots of other motorcycles.)  Along with the show, there will be many swap shop vendors who will be selling lots of motorcycle related items and memorabilia. Brit Jam also has many retail vendors and  retail vendors are invited to participate in our Swap Meet /Flea Market for no fee.
The registration for vendors is free and space is available on a first come first served basis. (Vendors are requested to arrive as early as 7:30 am and no later than 9 am.) later than 9 am.)
