Davy Morgan #71 Road Racing Supporters Club
The club was formed by a number of Davy's supporters to help him keep racing in 2009 and beyond. They knew how difficult it was to finance a Road Race Team, and it has become even more difficult with the onset and continuation of the recession.

December 2008, and the first meeting was held in the La Mon House Hotel, Comber , and the small group of supporters where surprised and very pleased with the number of people who attended the meeting. The Club continues to grow, and most importantly they are 100% supporters of Davy, and are commited to ensuring Davy will have the resources, to continue racing.

The Club has already run successful events in 2009 and 2010 to raise important funds to keep Davy on track and are planning further events in 2011, which we hope you will support.

Davy, in 2009 had an association with Action Cancer, a major Cancer Charity in Northern Ireland, in particular the "Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign". He carried the "Pink Ribbon Logo" on his Helmet, Leathers and his Race bikes, to help promote the charity. He set himself a challenge to raise at least £700, to allow at least ten women to receive breast scans. This was to be done with the support of the "Davy Morgan #71 Road Racing Supporters Club" through the sale of a pin badge featuring Davy's famous Pink Helmet. The demand was way beyond what anyone had anticipated and at the end of the season they were able to present a cheque for £5000 to "Action Cancer", a further £2250 pounds to "Isle of Man Breastcare" and 150 Euro to a Charity in Southern Ireland.

For the 2010 season Davy, continued his association with Action Cancer, but it was with their "Get a Grip" campaign which supports mens prostate cancer. The Badge for 2010 carrys a blue riband and the "Get a Grip" logo and will also sell at £3 each with a contribution from each badge going to Action Cancer.

It was not as successful as the first year, but it was not expected to be as a number of other riders used the same idea to raise money for their chosen charity. We did however raise more money for Action Cancer and this will be presented at our Golf Day Dinner on the 25th March 2011.

There are some of both these original badges left, so we will be continuing to sell them in 2011 at £3 each or £5 for the pair with a contribution from each badge going to Action Cancer. So if you see us, please buy a badge or two if you have not got either.
