Revealed this evening, Around A Pound will remain as title sponsors for the returning Tandragee 100, that is poised to take place next year from the 27th-28th of June.
Last run in 2022, the North Armagh Motorcycle & Car Club (Tarmac Section) Ltd ran event (first held in 1958), expected return is a welcomed boost to the beleaguered Irish national roads’ scene.
Teams, riders to already express an interest in venturing back to Tandragee include Conor Cummins and new suitors BE (Burrows Engineering)/RK (Richardson Kelly) Racing.
Commenting about Around A Pound’s continued support, T100 Clerk of The Course Anne Forsythe stated:
“We are delighted that Around-A-Pound is confirmed as this year’s title sponsor. Gerard and Siobhan have been very supportive towards both the Club and the event for nearly 20 years, and we are thrilled to be continuing that relationship in 2025.
The event just would not be the same without them, they have not only contributed significantly in a financial way since 2005 but been ‘hands on’ with course set up and on occasion offered advice and support when needed.
I’d also like to encourage the public to get behind our sponsors and support them, as well as the event.
With our budget rising to over £150,000 and insurance increases over the past few years everyone who gives a donation or buys a programme are also making an important contribution to our event, alongside the 500 volunteers who make the event possible.”
