Get Started in Irish Sidecar Racing

Get Started in Irish Sidecar Racing :

With the just announced news that motorcycle sports events will return to Ireland in 2024 now is the perfect time to get involved!

In 2023 a lack of adequate insurance cover meant all motorcycle sport and racing events were cancelled in Ireland.

The MCI have announced than an insurance policy has been agreed and tat gives the go ahead to most disciplines to get back out on their respective circuits.

The Irish Sidecar Club and the Irish Sidecar and Motorcycle Racing Supporters Club have issued a press release via Facebook inviting anyone with a genuine desire to get involved in sidecar racing to get in touch and get things in motion to make that happen.

If you have an interest in racing the three wheelers then now may well be the time to step up and make it happen.

Motorcycle Union of Ireland Insurance Update

by

Motorcycle Union of Ireland Insurance Update :

Some bitter sweet news from Motorcycling Ireland in the latest update on the insurance situation in the Republic of Ireland.

The sweet news is an insurance policy has been put forward and has been accepted by the MCI. This will see the return of motorcycle sports in Ireland.

However, the bitter taste, of this policy is that it does not cover road racing or motocross events that are held on coillte (state owned forestry land). A question mark is also over drag racing events in Cork.

Further details are expected from Motorcycling Ireland in the coming days. One interesting rumour to be confirmed – or hopefully not – is that this policy constitutes a two year deal. If that is indeed the case then there will be no road racing events in 2025, making 2026 the earliest road racing (or events on coillte) could return to the South. If that were to be true, is it even likely that road racing will return, or is it now destined to be a legend – a story of the good old days – the golden age? I really, genuinely hope not.

2023 saw no motorcycle sporting events in Ireland due to the lack of insurance cover. Huge work has went on in the background by Motorcycling Ireland to even get a quote on the table, so to have one on that table and accepted as adequate and affordable is a superb achievement.

The last road race in the South was the 2022 Faugheen 50.

2024 Ulster Grand Prix Cancelled

by

2024 Ulster Grand Prix Cancelled :

The Ulster Grand Prix have confirmed via a Facebook Post that the 2024 event has been cancelled.

“It is with regret that the Dundrod and District Motorcycle Club must announce the Ulster Grand Prix will not take place during 2024.

Despite recent positive negotiations with stakeholders of the event, the club has been left with no choice but to take this course of action given motorcycle sport’s ongoing insurance issues and a lack of sufficient time to find a solution to these challenges.

The DDMC remains committed to reviving the Ulster Grand Prix and will continue to work towards achieving that goal.”

Ian Hutchinson back with Milenco Padgett’s Honda Team for 2024 Calendar

Ian Hutchinson back with Milenco Padgett’s Honda Team for 2024 Calendar

Three-time North West 200 race winner, Ian Hutchinson will be re-united with the Milenco Padgett’s Honda squad for a full-scale onslaught on the Superbike, Superstock and Supersport races at the 2024 Briggs Equipment North West 200 in May.

Briggs Equipment Ireland | Padgetts Motorcycles

The move marks another inspiring comeback for the 44 year old during a career that has seemed to be an almost relentless battle against injury and illness since he last raced full-time with the Yorkshire-based team during 2010.

Hutchinson’s stunning ten race winning run with the Padgett’s team at that season’s NW200, Isle of Man TT, Ulster Grand Prix and Scarborough Gold Cup ended when he sustained a serious leg injury at Silverstone in September 2010.

After enduring more than 40 operations, the ‘Bingley Bullet’ eventually fought his way back into contention to claim victory in the 2013 Macau Grand Prix plus, a third win at the NW200 in 2016 and eight more TT triumphs before he crashed and broke his leg again during the 2017 Senior TT.

Battling back to fitness again, Hutchy returned to road racing with Honda in 2018, riding a Padgetts prepared CBR600RR to 7th and 16th place finishes in the Supersport class at the NW200.

2024 Tandragee 100 Cancelled

by

2024 Tandragee 100 Cancelled :

The North Armagh Club have confirmed today via a press release that the 2024 Tandragee 100 has been cancelled.

19/12/2023 Press Release :

On behalf of the North Armagh Motorcycle & Car Club (Tarmac Section) Ltd it is with deep regret that I confirm that the 2024 Around A Pound Tandragee 100 has been cancelled.

We have been unable to gain commitment for necessary resurfacing to be carried out in time to meet extended deadlines: (a) to confirm our intent to commit with MCUI UC (and relevant other Clubs) to a sizeable non-refundable insurance premium quotation; and (b) to confirm with 2&4W Motorsport Ltd definite use of a Road Closing Order (which will provide enough time to allow another motorsport club to make application for use of same in 2024).  We wish every success for all other motorsport clubs in 2024.

As a Club, after many months of lobbying and negotiations, we are very disappointed, however we are committed to do everything we can to ensure some level of resurfacing takes place at some stage in 2024 to enable us to bring this awe inspiring event back in 2025.  We wish to take this opportunity to thank all our competitors, sponsors, landowners, volunteers and spectators for their continued support.
