Miriam MaherJun 18 2024, 5:07pmAll the very best to the IMRA and NIMRA teams in Bilbao!

Huge thanks and credit to the team managers for both squads, the background work is considerable and that's before they even travel.

Wishing our rising stars a fantastic weekend of racing and all the buzz that goes with representing and being part of these squads.
Owen ConnollyJun 19 2024, 1:39pmBest of luck to all the teams.
A great bunch of athletes.

Enjoy!
