Historic Munster 100 back on track in Dunmanway

ONE of the country’s biggest motorcycle road races is revving up again after an 18-year absence.

The Munster 100 race — which can trace its roots back to 1940 — will take place in Dunmanway, Co Cork, on August 21 and 22, over a 1.9-mile track through the town.

Last summer, the town made headlines when it hosted a friendly between a Liverpool XI and the town’s local soccer team.
