Welcome to the Motor Enthusiasts Club (mec.ie) web site. The Club has organised both car and bike events for almost 55 years and, had it not been for those young enthusiasts fifty years ago, the club would not be what it is today, Over the years we have run motorcycle trials, circuit racing,hillclimbs, rallies, autotests, road racing, and sporting trials (mudplugs) and in most cases still do....
I helped and participated at many events in the more recent past and then in 1998 I was invited to join the committee, and it was then I realised the amount of planning and work that goes into organising each of our events run throughout the year. The satisfaction when an event goes well; most importantly the competitors are pleased, they have had a good days competition.
Our web site gives up to date information on all our events, whether you are a competitor looking for an entry form, or the results after an event, or even an enthusiast, who wants to go out for a look to see what its all about. There are names of all committee members on the web site so come out and talk to any of them at our meetings. We are always looking for new members, and helpers to keep the sport running to the high standards which are required nowadays by everyone.
Once again thanks for logging on to our web site, hopefully you find all the information you are looking for.
