A motor cycle club will be auctioning off a piece of memorabilia signed by TT riders later this month.

The Moddey Dhoo Motor Cycle Club will take bids on a white police helmet - donated by the Island's Chief Constable - adorned with the signatures of racers.

It will be at their annual event, the Memorial R'n'R Dance, at the Manx Legion Club on North Quay, Douglas on August 29th.

It starts at 7:30pm with a £5 donation on the door - all proceeds of the evening will go to the Southern 100 Supporters Club.
