This is one of the very few places in the world where you can enjoy motorcycle road racing at its adrenalin-charged best.
The region is home to Ireland's number one road racing event - the famous North West 200. It's more than a sporting sensation, it's a festival for the entire family.
The region's road racing heritage was cemented with the Armoy Armada, which was established in 1977 by Frank Kennedy, Jim Dunlop, Mervyn Robinson and the local road racing legend, Joey Dunlop. His achievements include three hat-tricks at the Isle of Man TT where he won 26 races in total; he won the Ulster Grand Prix 24 times and, in 1986, he won a fifth consecutive Formua One world title.
The Joey Dunlop Memorial Garden and nearby museum in Ballymoney have become points of pilgrimage for people from around the world who marvel at the skill, commitment and courage which are synonymous with success in this tough sport.
