    Anyone here know what motorbike racing is? Anyone here not a learner?

    Firstly - a few more details of the event would be good.

    Second - trying to insult posters to get a response is not a good idea.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    Didn't know people needed full license to watch racing.


    Anyways, nope not going meself. I don't watch any sports at all. I'd be bored outta me tits at any sporting event.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,282 ✭✭✭BlackWizard


    I've no idea what it is so I won't be going. I might be bored too!

    the whole event was great. brilliant job by west cork mcc and all involved in organising.

    not many places where you can see that kind of action for the price of a round of beers!

    Some (harley) bikers were griping on the way in about the price, but to be fair it was a weekend of top racing, and I don't think there is any other road race where you can get THAT close to racing. Thankfully the nanny state that has ruined the NW200 etc, has not found its way to west cork yet.
    No heavy handed policing on the route home either. Just lines of happy bikers, overtaking cages.

    Great weekend, :D
    No problem with paying €15 f*ck the begrudgers. Well worth it.

    Was great road racing in Timoleague. The rain stayed away for most of the racing. Next and last races of the year are at Killalane 10/11 Sept.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51 ✭✭LagunaSeca


    some nice footage from Timoleague (if the link works)...

    Amazing footage. Drove the course yesterday, hard to believe how tight the downhill section is.

    I did, sunday morning, down at aghawadda, typical harley types, ancient and ignoring everyone not driving a hardley, wanted a reduction cos they weren't about for the practice on saturday.
    I walked past them and happily handed over my €20(€5 for the program).
    If we don't pay for it, it may not be back.

    Ah come on goldie fish, not even riding Harley's and you assume they are Harley types, jerks more like it (could have been GS'r too lol) was with a few lads, several riding Harley's and all said the same, best weekend in ages and a credit to the West Cork Motorcycle Club, ended up taking about 800 photos of which about 50 to 100 are decent enough considering I dont own a fast lens, first race in years and loved it

    Its a credit to the West Cork Motorcycle club, to have run things so good for the weekend. John Curran deserves a lot of praise for all the work he and his family put in to it. Also Brendan Desmond (ex road racer).

    OK, because you are a hardley owner i'll spell it out for you slowly
    They arrived on harleys.
    I parked next to them on a proper motorcycle
    They were old and wearing the usual hardley BDSM kit.
    They ignored me and everyone else not in their sewing circle.
