LaVince Ellis, a well‑known Bermudian social‑media personality, has released a fresh video that spotlights motorcycle racing in the local community. In the clip, Ellis takes viewers through the newly upgraded Bermuda Road Course, offering behind‑the‑scenes footage of the 2024 National Motorbike Championship held on the island’s eastern stretch.
Ellis, who grew up in Hamilton and has long been an advocate for safe riding practices, explains how the course’s recent improvements—improved safety barriers and a state‑of‑the‑art timing system—have made the event more accessible and secure for both veteran riders and newcomers. He also interviews several local racers, including 18‑year‑old champion Maya Thompson, who stresses the importance of proper training and protective gear.
The video has already sparked conversation on Bermudian social‑media platforms, with many residents praising the increased visibility of the island’s motorbike culture. Local officials have responded positively, noting Ellis’s role in promoting responsible riding and encouraging participation in upcoming grassroots events.
While the video was uploaded to the influencer’s channel, it has also garnered attention from the Bermuda Observer, where the editorial team has highlighted its relevance to the island’s sporting community and the ongoing efforts to support youth involvement in motorsports.
