Bradley Thompson and his two brothers use EBC Brakes components on their motocross bikes
Bradley, Isaac and Jonah Thompson are three young Northern Ireland-based motocross racers, rising the ranks of various championships using EBC-equipped machinery.
Bradley is competing in the Irish Motocross Championship on a Husqvarna TC85, equipped with the firm’s run R-series pads and MD discs.
We caught up with the family outfit as Bradley finished the penultimate round of his campaign at Raholp’s Mountain Quarter MX, coming away with the 2026 Small Wheel 85 overall class win with one round to spare.
Read how the year has panned out for Bradley in the team’s own words below…
“What a weekend at Mountain Quarter for Round 5 of the Irish Motocross Championship!
“Really happy to finish as the 2026 Irish Motocross Champion in the Small Wheel 85 class.”
“It’s been a great championship with some really good racing all year, and I’ve enjoyed every round. Well done to Max and Caleb.
“A big thank you to the Motocross Commission, all the clubs and everyone behind the scenes for all the work that goes into running such a great championship and giving us the opportunity to race.”
“I’m also really grateful to all my sponsors for their support throughout the year. Thank you for believing in me and helping me do what I love.
“And a massive thank you to my family and everyone who helps with the bike, gets me to the races and supports me every weekend. I couldn’t do any of it without you.”
“Really grateful to have had such a good year and very proud to come away with the championship.”
