TT stars out in force to fight disease

Saturday, 21 February 2009 01:13

Some of the biggest names in TT racing will take to the course today to help eradicate polio.

Douglas Rotary Club is asking bikers on the Island to contribute £5 to the cause, and join the stars for a lap.

As well as riding with the likes of John McGuinness, Steve Plater and Nick Crowe, participants will see a stunt performance from Steve Colley, and receive a t-shirt and a hot drink.

Organiser Ian Lewandowskyj says Rotary clubs all over the world will be raising funds to pay for polio vaccinations (play attached audio file):

Anyone wishing to take part should be at the TT Grandstand by 10am for a 10.30 start.
