2026 Skerries 100 : John O’Donovan :
It has been confirmed that John ‘Plumb’ O’Donovan has died following an incident at the 2026 Skerries 100.
WestCork Mcc : “It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our dear friend and fellow club member, John “Plumb” O’Donovan.
John was a much-loved character within the West Cork Motorcycle Club and someone who will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He was known for his incredible sense of humour and quick wit, his generosity, and his unwavering friendship. No matter where he went, John had a way of making people smile and bringing others together.
John’s dedication to racing was second to none. He worked tirelessly to pursue the sport he loved, putting countless hours into preparing, improving, and giving everything he had on the track. His determined riding style earned him respect from fellow competitors, but it never left the circuit. Once the racing was over, John was always the first to share a laugh, crack a joke, and enjoy the camaraderie that made the racing community so special. That balance of fierce competitor and genuine friend is how so many of us will remember him.
Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with John’s wife Valerie, children Sean, Libby and Emily, family, loved ones, and all who are mourning his loss at this incredibly difficult time.
Rest easy, Plumb.”

2026 Tandragee 100 Results :
The opening day of the 62nd Tandragee 100 presented competitors with a day of almost uninterrupted sunshine. That however brought its own problems as the evening progressed the sun became a problem as it got lower in the beautiful early summer sky. That coupled with an incident involving a belligerent spectator meant that the two Friday evening races were unfortunately cancelled.
In the premier Supersport qualifying session, Cork’s Michael Browne demonstrated exceptional form aboard the Boyce Precision Engineering/Russell Racing Yamaha. Browne was the only rider to break the three-minute barrier, securing pole position with a commanding lap of 2:59.629.
Multi-time Isle of Man TT winner Michael Dunlop MBE spearheaded the chase, qualifying second with a :03.00.084, while Skerries rider Michael Sweeney completed the front row (3:02.944).

2026 TT Races : Race Week Summary :
The second week of the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races will go down as one of the most weather-disrupted and logistically challenging in the event’s modern history. Persistent rain and adverse conditions relentlessly forced cancellations, truncations, and major schedule overhauls, leaving the Clerk of the Course in a constant battle against the elements.
Out of the ten originally planned contests, only five official race results were declared across the entire event. Notably, both Superstock races were scrapped entirely, and the Sidecar class was suspended for the remainder of the event following serious incidents during practice week.

The second week saw a near-total blackout of racing from Wednesday through Thursday due to unrelenting rain. To salvage the schedule, organizers compressed the remaining action into Friday, June 5, executing a marathon itinerary that included the rescheduled Supersport Race 2, the newly re-branded Sportbike Race 1 (formerly Supertwin), and the blue-ribbon Milwaukee Senior TT.
When Saturday, June 6 brought yet another wave of dense fog and heavy rainfall, the final race day was officially abandoned. In an official statement, the Clerk of the Course summarized the historic frustrations:
“This has undoubtedly been one of the most challenging TTs in recent years from a weather perspective. Over the course of the event, we set out with nine days on which racing could potentially have taken place, and rain will have affected seven of them. That is an exceptional set of circumstances and it has had a major impact on what we have been able to deliver. Throughout the event, the weather simply hasn’t worked in our favour.”
