Thundersprint is a motorcycle rally held in May annually. It is held in Northwich, United Kingdom. Attendance is estimated to be 130,000 over the two days. The event has been running since 1997. The Thundersprint race takes place in Northwich town centre and the show takes place the day before the races at Winnington Park Rugby Club, approximately 2 miles from the town centre. Both events have free admission and parking. On the Sunday, as well as the racing, there are sideshows, stalls and entertainment, and many years (when weather allowed) there has been a Spitfire flypast.
