⭐️⭐️Blackfords Classic Pre TT 22nd/23rd/24th May ⭐️⭐️

First trip of the year to the Isle of Man, this time with the Classic Superbike and John Cliffe’s 400.

Very late checking in for the ferry we somehow managed to be in the front of the queue to board, which was an absolute winner !

Qualified well with the 400 and was really looking forward to the race which was very sadly stopped on lap 2 after the incident with Alan Oversby. Our condolences go to his family and friends, we’d watched him racing the night before and he was in great form. The Classic Superbike race was next out and I had a nice ride round, finishing safely in one of my favourite places in the sunshine.

We had the grandsons with us for their first Isle of Man experience, loving paddock life and being around the bikes.

Next up for us is Oliver’s Mount for the Barry Sheene Meeting followed by a Northern Ireland trip to Tandragee the weekend after.

⭐️⭐️Cookstown 100 24th/25th April⭐️⭐️

Love a trip to Northern Ireland with the bikes 🏁🚀. There was a strange thing in the sky that we’ve rarely seen before. We’d packed for all options but didn’t think we’d need sunscreen! 😎

The MV 🇮🇹 qualified P14 for the Senior Support ‘A’ race, had a great start and was running well for most of the race until I ran on at Gortin and dropped right down the order. It is a feisty, finicky beast at the best of times and more so when the weather is warm.

John Cliffe’s little Honda, was feeling great in qualifying and we ended up P6. I was really looking forward to the race, set off on the warm up lap and quickly realised it wasn’t running quite right so pulled in. It will be headed to the dyno early next week while we work out what is up.

Brilliant weekend for Cowton Racing with Bailey & Will both doing a grand job. Daniel Pearson had a winning pit board and Degsy also made the podium. Stand out moment for me was Chris Meyer sharing a podium with MD.

And that was our Cookstown 100 this year. 🏁🏁😁

Next up for us is the Classic Pre TT races in the Isle of Man 🇮🇲

⭐️⭐️Oliver’s Mount Spring Cup 11th & 12th April ⭐️⭐️

Firstly, we need to extend our condolences to the family and friends of Aran Sadler who very sadly passed away due to a racing incident at the circuit on Saturday. Aran has been a huge help to me with the newcomers over the last few years and it has been an absolute pleasure to watch his success on the roads. A real talent taken far too soon. To his fiancé Lorna, we are heartbroken and so sorry for your loss 🥲

With the full support of Aran’s family, the show did go on the following day. I had my own CSB and John Cliffe’s VFR 400 for the Lightweights.

The weather as ever at Oliver’s Mount couldn’t make its mind up - the CSB finished the weekend with a P6 on Saturday, then I ran out of talent at Esses Out in the first race on Sunday and we decided to park it up. The plan for John’s little Honda was just to finish - and we did - all 3 races.! 😁✅

Ricky had a positive first run out with the SV ending the weekend with an 8th in the Twins race.

Cookstown up next, leaving home next Wednesday morning for the drive up to Liverpool for the overnight ferry.

⭐️⭐️RTR - Plan for 2026 ⭐️⭐️

We have been holding off confirming plans for this year until we knew whether or not Roddy would get an entry for the Manx Grand Prix or the Classic TT. Having now had a resounding NO from both and not ready for retirement as yet, this is our rough plan for the year:

- Oliver’s Mount Spring Cup 11/12 April
- Cookstown 24/25 April
- Pre TT Classic 22/23/24 May
- Oliver’s Mount Barry Sheene 20/21 June
- Tandragee 26/27 June
- Southern 100 5/6/7/8 July
- Oliver’s Mount COTN 18/19 July
- Armoy 24/25 July
- Bishopscourt Classic 7/8/9 August
- Oliver’s Mount Gold Cup 4/5/6 Sept
- Frohburg 19/20 Sept

We are also very excited to share that 3 times CB500 champion Ricky Martin will be joining us this year and taking over the seat on our little SV. Roddy will be riding our MV Agusta and Classic Superbike with a Honda K2 350cc joining the line up.

Awesome to see so many of the Irish Road Races confirming dates, we are spoilt for choice and plans may well change !

Thanks as always to our loyal team of supporters who continue to help out.
