Treasurer for the AMRRC (Armoy Motorcycle Road Racing Club), George Huey:
“We’re delighted to partner with King of the Roads this year so that Armoy fans can tune into all the action from wherever they are in the world.
Last year, we had fans watching from as far away as Manhattan in New York, which makes us exceptionally proud to know that Armoy is well and truly on the global map.”
“Like many other race meetings, we’ve seen the cost of running the Armoy Road Races increase by almost 50% since 2019, largely due to rises in insurance, the hire of infrastructure and amenities like toilets as well as transportation and medical costs.
We’ve also invested approximately £23,000 in improvements around the course this year, including extending our paddock area, enhancing the experience for spectators, competitors and their teams.
It is quite challenging to host an event of Armoy’s scale, both financially and physically, but we manage it every year. You also must remember that our members are all volunteers who work tirelessly each year, purely for the love of the sport.”
“With the July holidays and the races being held slightly earlier this year, which means that some people are either travelling or on holidays during the Armoy Road Races.
Partnering with King of the Roads means fans will still be able to experience all the racing live, regardless of where they are in the world.
As a Club, we’re committed to continuously investing in the event to ensure that Armoy remains one of the key fixtures in the road racing calendar and that fans and competitors have the best experience possible.”
