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.

No 2024 Road Racing Events in Republic of Ireland

by

No 2024 Road Racing Events in Republic of Ireland :

The Motorcycle Union of Ireland have confirmed via a press release that there will be no road racing events held in the Republic of Ireland in 2024.

Whilst this is obviously hugely disappointing it should be noted that through very obvious hard work and dedication, from the organisation, there is hope for a better 2024. An insurance quote has been obtained which covers many motorcycle sport disciplines. No such quote was even obtained in 2023.

Therefore, tentatively, it looks like there will be a return to two wheel motorsports in Ireland in 2024 and the MCI stress that they will continue to support the roads legacy and work towards a return to road racing as soon as possible.

Press Release : Update on Insurance for immediate release 18/12/2023 :

The Board of Motorcycling Ireland wish to confirm that through the hard work of our insurance committee and outside experts, we have secured a quote for insurance for the 2024 competition season. Although we have received a quote, as expected the cost for this coverage presents a significant financial challenge.
