Lurgan Park Rally 2017 – Cancelled.

Lurgan Park Rally 2017 – Cancelled

Yet another motorsport event falls victim to spiralling costs, increased Health and Safety requirements and ultimately lack of funding.

At this rate only the big players such as Formula 1, and Moto GP will survive and we will be stuck with what YouTube reminds us of our local events, when motorsports were there for all, to be attended and enjoyed by all.

The Club want the event back for 2018 – I really hope that happens, but unfortunately I see this as another step on the slippery slope to the end of local motorsports.  At least thanks to these ever increasing Health and Safety Standards we will all be absolutely safe, contained in our life preserving bubbles, I wonder what the view will be like though, hopefully not too bright as that could damage our retinas!  H&S will need to look at that!

2017 Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsorship Opportunities now available for tbni.blog 2017
Sponsorship Opportunities now available for tbni.blog 2017

With the turn of the new year it is time to open up the tbni.blog sponsorship programme again.

This is very simple and also exceptionally good value for our sponsors (Prices start from FREE!).  The sponsorship only runs until 31st December 2017 and resets itself in the new year to allow new sponsors a chance to get in.

What does it involve?  Basically you get a slot on one of my panniers – (Details below) – for you to put your company logo.

You then get your logo / brand out there everywhere my bike goes and is kitted out with the boxes.  You also get your brand / logo added to this site which attracted over 30,000 unique visitors in 2016.  Remember though that these visitors are looking for this site and it’s content.  We don’t buy visitors – our figures are genuine and only consist of people who are looking for information on what we post.  The people you want to see your branding will, as all of our visitors want to be here!

You will also get exposure via the Twitter and Facebook Pages.

Revenue generated goes back into tbni.blog to keep it running, up to date and to enable the addition of new content.

For more information get in touch with us via :

[email protected]

or via this contact form :

Error: Contact form not found.

All decisions on Sponsorship will be made by me – I will only endorse products that I feel to be useful / beneficial / fun and positive to this site.  I will not enter communication as to why I feel your brand / logo may not be suitable or has been unsuccessuful in being selected for inclusion in this program.  If you want to be added to the waiting list for this program then please let me know.

On January 27 & 28th 2017 the ArenaCross UK Tour graced Belfast’s Odyssey Arena for two rounds of the UK Competition.  With everyone from 7 year old kids to Europe’s finest indoor Motorcross Racers and a ridiculously skilled Freestyle Team this really is a high octane, completely flat out show from start to finish – and it’s a format that works and this is its fifth year on the bounce in Belfast – and my second.
