The Irish Motocross Commission met on Tuesday, 29th July, to discuss Ireland’s potential participation in the 2025 Motocross of Nations, set to take place at Ironman Raceway in the USA.
Rider Martin Barr expressed strong interest in taking full control of raising the finances to field a team for the prestigious international event. He was invited to attend the meeting to present his proposal, and while Martin himself will take the lead on fundraising efforts, Richard McKeown was appointed as Team Manager.
Following detailed discussions, the Commission has officially confirmed that Team Ireland will participate in the 2025 MX of Nations, reversing an earlier decision not to attend due to financial constraints.
Team selection will take place in the coming weeks, as preparations for the event are now fully underway.
