Hager PBM Ducati

A former Grand Prix motocross rider until injury forced him to retire; Paul Bird started helping local riders back in the early 90s before starting his own team in 1996. For the next decade, Paul Bird Motorsport established itself as one of the leading teams in both the British Championships and on the roads culminating in nine domestic titles as well as two prestigious Isle of Man TT victories.
Bird’s team has a strong pedigree having won consecutive British Superbike Championship titles, first through the late, legendary Steve Hislop in 2002 and then Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne a year later, with Stuart Easton also winning the Supersport title to add to John McGuinness’ 250cc crown of 1999.
Based in Langwathby in Cumbria, Paul Bird’s global motorsport operation combines motorsport on both two wheels and four. In addition to two-wheel competition, his son Frank Bird will continue his racing career in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance & Sprint Cup as part of Team WRT in a factory-supported Audi
