Competitors and mechanics are making final preparations ahead of the opening practice session tomorrow (Saturday) evening, with roads around the mountain course due to close at 5pm.

As well as the racing, several top riders will be visiting the Isle of Man over the next fortnight.

There will be a chat show with Carl Fogarty and Jamie Whitham, Honda TT Legends John McGuinness and Keith Amor will be over, and McGuinness will ride a parade lap on Senior Race day.
