Racing action roaring back into life at Jurby this weekend

The 2026 Andreas Racing Association (ARA) Championships are due to get underway in the north of the Island today (22 March).

Whilst testing and race school sessions have already started at Jurby Airfield, today marks the first competitive round of racing action.

From this weekend and throughout the campaign running until September, riders will face off across seven classes, including solos and sidecars.

ARA Secretary, Neal Champion, says going into the season opener, demand to take part is already 'well-subscribed' across the board:

Bikes are due to be out on track at Jurby from approximately 9.30am, with tickets for spectators priced at £6 for adults whilst Under-16's go free.

Further details about future racing rounds and test sessions for the forthcoming campaign are available on the Andreas Racing Association website.
