About

Motorsport in Ulster

My books are about the very early years of motorsport in Ulster. From the first hill climb at Ballybannon in 1903 my books tell the story of how motorsport , inn particular hill climbs and road racing, developed from being the preserve of wealthy Edwardian industrialists until the golden age of road racing between 1928 and 1936
