Dublin Motorcycle Touring Club
We would like to extend a personal invitation to you to become a member of Dublin Motorcycle Touring Club Limited. The name of the Club is often shortened to DMTC. The club has had an exciting history of involvement in Irish motorcycle sport & touring. Members were involved in setting up the first MCUI-approved Ladies Race at Mondello Park, and continue to compete in & support the Road-Race, Short-Circuit & Enduro Irish championships. Early members were involved in Fingal MCC for their racing activities and formed DMTC as a 'high mileage' Touring club for R+R in 1971.
Touring Events
The Club organised their first Riders Rally (point-to-point rally) on the August Holiday weekend in 1973 and the first 'End of Season' Way West Rally in Easkey, Co Sligo in 1974. These formal events are open to all, monthly events such as runs, meets, weekends are held for members. In 1978 10 Members attended the FIM Rally in Valkenberg, Holland, starting a virtual unbroken link to the present. In 1992 the club hosted the FIM Motocamp in Killarney with 280 participants. In 2001 on our 30th anniversary the DMTC organised the prestigious "56th FIM Rally" in Killarney, Co Kerry for 1,750 visiting motorcyclists with the help of 150 volunteers.
