The AXA Bikecare & Country Crest Skerries 100 Motorcycle Race

Taking palce on Friday and Saturday, 30th June and 1st July, the AXA Bikecare & Country Crest Skerries 100 Motorcycle Race was once again a great success.

This year’s AXA Bikecare & Country Crest Skerries 100 Motorcycle Race took place on Friday and Saturday, 30th June and 1st July over the demanding 2.9 mile seaside course. Coopers Marquees supplied AXA Insurance with a Pagoda Marquee for the event.

Derek Sheils comfortably won both the Open and Grand Final, taking it from Derek McGee and local racer Micko Sweeney. Racing in front of a large crowd of race supporters, he outraced competitors from the beginning, developing a lead that was impossible for either McGee or Sweeney to close.

Derek McGee, the Mulling Missile, however was comforted by a grand total of 3 wins having won the Kennedy Motorcycles 600cc, Sam Dennigan 125\Moto3 and the C&T Supermarket\The Peoples Race 650cc Supertwins race - all this following his 'Best Newcomer' award at the recent Isle of Man TT.

Congratualtions to all the winners at the Skerries 100 Motorcycle Race and in particular to our client and co-sponsor of the event, AXA Bikecare.
