The Motor Cycle Union of Ireland (Ulster Centre) Limited is pleased to announce the revival of the Ulster Centre Road Race Championships for 2009. The championships were last awarded in 1988.
The 2009 championships will be held over the five National Road Races in the Ulster Centre:
1. Cookstown 100 Road Race 24th/25th April
2. Tandragee 100 Road Race 1st/2nd May
3. Bush Road Race 19th/20th June
4. Mid Antrim 150 Road Race 31st July/1st August
5. Armoy Road Race 7th/8th August
Commenting on the return of the championships at the Ulster Centre Awards Night, at La Mon Hotel on 2nd January, Ivan Davidson, Convenor and Press Officer for the Ulster Centre Tarmac Committee said,
The Ulster championships have been revived in response to feedback from a number of riders who suggested to us that with the current credit crunch it is likely that a number of riders will find it difficult to travel to all the rounds of the Irish Championship series in 2009.
Also with the introduction of the Armoy race in 2009, the Tarmac Committee now consider an Ulster Centre Championship to be viable again with five road race events, one less than when we last held the championship in 1988. The championships will also generate increased interest for the enthusiastic Ulster road race supporters. We hope to attract sponsorship for the championships in future years.
The detailed rules of the championships, including the classes, are currently being developed by the Tarmac Committee and will be published by the end of February. They are expected to be broadly aligned to the rules of the Irish Road Race championship.
The five national road races in the Ulster Centre will also be counting rounds of the MCUI Irish Road Race Championship for 2009.
