2017 Road Racing Calendar
Here is the 2017 season Road Racing Calendar.
In Ireland (North and South) this year the clubs have to face very high increase in insurance prices to cover the events.
When publishing this post, it has been confirmed that Killalane Road Race won’t be held in September for this reason.
Update 06/02/2017: The Club just confirmed that they won’t be able to organise the races in 2017 for not being able to finance the high insurance cost. 🙁
Update 12/04/2017: there will be a race on Killalane circuit at the same date as previous one, organised by a new club. A very good news for road racing.
It is very important for the fans who want to keep going to those fabulous events to participate as much as they can to the financial effort of the clubs, paying the entry fee (when there is) and/or buying a program. Also using the car parks can help.
We can also contribute by becoming a member of one of the Clubs organising those events.
