Kells Road Races will not take place in 2013 due to financial pressures, making it the second event after Bush races to be cancelled this season.
Organising club, the Kells MCRC issued a statement this evening saying there isn't enough funding for the event to go ahead this year.
It reads:
"Kells M.C.R.C wish to announce that unfortunately due of lack of adequate funding the 2013 Kells Road Races will not now take place. The members of Kells MCRC want to ensure that Kells Road Races return in the future as strong as ever and intend to fundraise over the coming year to clear bills and get our club back on track.
"We want to thank all those who have supported us in the past and hope you will continue with the support for our club."
More when we get it.
