Douglas bar comes out in support of TT sidecars

The Island's newest motorsport-themed bar has backed keeping the sidecars as part of the TT.

Motor Isle, based in Wellington Street in Douglas, took to social media after the class was suspended this year following a crash involving the Crowe brothers.

The suspension has led to anguish from fans concerned it'll be the end of sidecar racing at the festival.

On Facebook, the bar says "The TT isn't the same without the chairs" along with a photo of giant artwork with the hashtag "Save the sidecars".
