Day two to get underway at Billown

Roads around the Billown Course in the south of the Island will be closed this afternoon and evening as day two of the Pre-TT Classic Road Races gets underway.

Last night’s qualifying session was stopped after an incident in the penultimate practice. Rider Neil Rutledge was involved in an incident at Church Bends but was reported to be ok.

Today (23 May), roads will close around Billown at 12:30pm for the afternoon qualifying session, before reopening again at 4:30pm at the latest.

They're then due to close again at 6pm for the evening racing, to reopen no later than 9pm.
