Wednesday, 22 May 2024 14:30

This year's parade lap around the Island is expected to draw thousands of fans commemorating the life of Hairy Biker Dave Myers.

The annual TT Legacy Lap will leave the TT Pit Lane at 9.30am on Mad Sunday, June 2.

Those taking part will get a commemorative wrist band when they sign-on at the Hailwood Centre behind the Grandstand from 2pm next Tuesday, May 28.

Organisers say a number of bikers will be using the event to raise money for cancer charities in memory of Dave Myers who died in February.
