Athea Road Race Club does their bit for Road Racing.

At the recent Faugheen 50 road races, members of The Athea Road Race Club presented a cheque for €800 to The MCI Medical Team. This money was raised at a successful Martin Finnegan Memorial Poker Run, which was held on May 3rd last. The Late Martin Finnegan was a devote supporter of the MCI Medical Team. Athea Road Race Club would like to thank everyone who supported this run and we look forward to your continued support. The club would also like to thank Joe Connolly at www.bigjoephotos.eu for use of his photos from the cheque presentation.

"I quite enjoy the Athea races, as there is no mucking about there as far as the organising goes "

"It was good to get the 125 race win, the wee bike was flying, but I seem to have no luck with the 250 at the moment"

"The club also deserve praise for putting on a great meeting and they'd done a terrific job in making the circuit a lot safer. They looked after me all weekend so a big thanks to them and to all the team for their hard work and effort once more."
