Syrians grateful for goods delivered
A humanitarian trip to a refugee camp in Turkey, close to the Syrian border, has been hailed as emotional but successful.
Jim Hunter, Ian Pert and Ronnie Russell are on their way back to the Island after encountering landslides, heavy snow, armed police stops, van searches and disappearing roads.
The journey has been inspired by the trips undertaken by Joey Dunlop and supports charities set-up in memory of another former motorsport rider Billy Redmayne.
Ian Pert says the Syrian refugees at the camp are trying to carry on as much as normal - including educating the children:
