The funeral of TT rider Raul Torras Martinez will take place today.
It comes after the 46-year-old Spanish rider was killed in the first Supertwin TT Race earlier this month.
A hearse bearing his coffin will leave the Grandstand at midday and take Raul on a 'final lap' of the TT Mountain Course, before returning to the Douglas Crematorium at 1.15pm.
The Manx Motorcycle Club adds it would be 'greatly appreciated' if local bikers join Raul on his final lap.
