Weston-super-Mare seafront transforms into motorsport event

A town's seafront has been transformed into the home of one of the UK's biggest off-road motorsport events.

Over the weekend, thousands attended the annual Weston Beach Race which returned to Weston-super-Mare.

The seafront heard a roar of bikes, quadbikes and sidecars taking on a six-mile (10km) circuit.

Professional and amateur riders from across the world, both adults and children, battled out the race track in front of excited crowds.
