Dromore Cycle Races

Banbridge Cycling Club were the main promoters when up to five events were up for showing to the general public in Dromore, Co Down. The John Beggs Memorial race has over the years been considered a tough race commencing from the Dromore Scout Hall on the Ballynahinch Road and covering 56 miles on an eight mile circuit. The John Beggs Memorial race catered for category Senior 1 and Senior 2 riders.

The Sean McGreevy Memorial race covers the same circuit as the competitors in the John Beggs Memorial race, caters for Senior 3 ,Veterans ,Women and Juniors, but covering only 40 miles of the eight mile circuit.

For the first time ever in 2008, Banbridge Cycle took a gamble in promoting the first ever tandem race in Northern Ireland and they did so again in 2009.
