Dean Martin RIP - Queenbee - 28-05-2016
Sad news for the start of the Pre-TT racing. Condolences to Dean Martin's family and wishes for speedy recovery to Jamie O'Brien and the marshalls involved in the incident.
Without Marshalls - no racing - so hopefully they will stil have enough volunteers to cover the race days.
Disgusted that the TT website is not even mentioning this incident on its news page - this does not seem to be being updated at all! The least they could do is to offer support to those involved!
I hope you are not referring to this website, as the official Press Rease notification was published in the Southern 100 Section at 09:19 on Saturday morning, immediately after receipt of the official email, and not before any speculative and unofficial "news" that was being spread in various internet media.

RIP Dean. Wishing everyone involved a speedy recovery. It's sad to hear about the loss of a rider, but they are all aware of the risks. Unfortunately, when bystanders or marshals are involved, the situation becomes even worse. Let's all hope for a safe TT fortnight ahead!
