2022 Tandragee 100 : Guy Martin and Dominic Herbertson out on the Classics
2022 marks the 60th Anniversary of the Tandragee 100 event and it kicked off on Friday 29th April with the Practice and Qualifying Sessions.
Conditions were perfect, the track was perfect, the set up was perfect and the event ran perfectly – an absolute credit to the Tandragee 100 Team.
The only issue with the Friday session was that (I would imagine) a right few people went home with a little sunburn!
It was a superb lead up to race day.
The weather forecast for race day for the previous week predicted rain, and despite everyone’s hopes that the rain may not actually come, or may come later, or simply the hope that ‘Those long range forecasts are quite often wrong.’ – the weather forecast was in fact correct. The rain came and started just in time for the road closure and never let up.
Three races ran, between five red flags, and then the conditions both on the track and in the sky worsened and the meeting was abandoned.
A difficult decision for the Club, but without doubt the right one.
The most important thing is everyone gets home safely, so the right call was made.
Friday showed what road racing can be, (I suppose Saturday did too) – so if you are new to the sport hold on to that Friday Feeling!
A sad ending to the event for the Club, but they can rest easy knowing the hard work was done, what they could control they did so flawlessly and what they couldn’t – well, it is what it is.

After what had been positive whisperings about the relaunch of the Ulster Grand Prix for 2022 it has now been announced that the event has been cancelled due to lack of funding.
Government funding of £800,000 had been signed off to bring the historic Dundrod event and the North West 200 under one organisational umbrella, but the financial rescue package has not been supported by Tourism NI.
The decision means the Ulster Grand Prix – scheduled to have taken place from August 16-20 – cannot go ahead.
A statement issued by the directors of the Revival MCC – former NW200 Event Director Mervyn Whte, road racing great Phillip McCallen and Robin Titterington – said: “It is with much regret that we must announce the Revival Racing MCC is not in a position to stage the Ulster Grand Prix in 2022.
“We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to the Department of Economy and Department of Finance who both fully endorsed our proposal which would have delivered the biggest investment in motorcycling ever seen in Northern Ireland.
“Unfortunately, Tourism NI has informed us it will not support the level of funding agreed.
Bike Week returns for the 2022 event, with the annual Classic Bike, run taking place on Tuesday 18th April, departing from the Burn Rd car park at 7.30 pm.

2022 BMW Club Photo Rally : The BMW Club (Ulster Section) have announced the points for the 2022 Photographic Rally.
If you are from ‘Up North’ and the thought of the entire Irish Photo Rally is a bit too daunting for you at the moment, or your are new to the idea of a Motorcycle Photo Rally then maybe the BMW Club’s Ulster Photo Rally is your perfect starting place?
I have been doing this rally for many years and every year it is a great motivator to get out and do a few extra road trips, for no reason other than to see somewhere and photograph something.
About the BMW Club Photo Rally : (Ulster Section) :
The Photographic Rally is all about getting the motorbike out and hopefully travelling new roads and visiting new locations, not forgetting to take your camera with you. This event is open to all riders, you do not have to be a club member to participate.
Some how we have found 9 more new places all across Ulster for you to ride along to and take your pictures. With some of our entries getting more and more artistic feel free to be as creative as you like. All that is required is for you to visit as many of the locations (hopefully all 9) and take a photograph of your bike and the subject at the location, if you have a pillion they are to be included also. This year our chosen charity is Macmillan Cancer Support (NI).
