New Zealand Biker Who Died In TT Race To Have Isle Of Man Funeral

The family of Paul Dobbs, a biker who died in Thursday Supersport race have said they want his funeral to be on the Isle of Man.

The 39 year old New Zealand rider was married with two children.

His wife has issued a statement saying he died doing what he most loved, in a place he felt at home and surrounded by people he admired.

The funeral is expected to be next week.

The race he died in also claimed the life of Austrian, Martin Loicht.
There will also be a memorial service in New Zealand at a later date.
