Speaking ahead of the event Mourne Motorcycle Club Chairman Billy McLarnin said: “As ever Norman Green has his Seaforde MotoParc looking perfect.

“Obviously we have had a lot of rain so far this year, but hopefully we are starting to see better, dry weather and this this will continue on May Day.

“We will also be hoping for a good turnout of riders, spectators and a good day’s racing for everyone involved,” Billy added.

The Mourne club is holding the event with support from Connor McKibben at Brennan’s Ice Cream & Service Station, along with The Deli Restaurant @ Brennan’s and MRA championship sponsors.
