A parade lap celebrating the life of one of the TT's best-known and successful riders takes place this week.

The Joey Dunlop Foundation is marking the 25th anniversary of Joey Dunlop's death with a tribute lap of the TT course.

Riders are being invited to gather at the TT grandstand on Glencrutchery Road in Douglas from 6.30pm on Wednesday, July 2.

The organisation says it'll be a respectful, low-key event with no registration or donations required, and there'll be a reception at the Mike Hailwood Foundation after riders complete the lap.
