On behalf of the North Armagh Motorcyle & Car Club (Tarmac Section) Ltd is with profound sadness that we confirm James Walsh has passed away in hospital after being airlifted from the event last Saturday. We are completely heartbroken by this tragic loss, and our entire club is mourning a truly valued member of our racing community.
Road racing is a sport built on shared passion and tight bonds, which makes a loss like this resonate deeply with every rider, official, and fan. Our thoughts, prayers, and deepest sympathies are with his partner Claire, his Mom Geraldine, the rest of his family, friends, and his own club members during this incredibly devastating time.
We want to express our immense gratitude to the MCUI UC Medical Team, the air ambulance crew, and the medical staff who fought so hard to save him. Out of respect for his family as they navigate this immense grief, we ask everyone to respect their privacy and allow them the time and space they need.
