Thousands of people are expected to attend the traditional event

A major Heritage Lap race will take place today in honour of a road racing legend.

Cyclists will cycle around the TT track in memory of Jack Wood, who competed in the MGP, TT and Southern 100 in the 1950s and later became a leading figure in race management as TT track clerk.

He died last year at the age of 94.

The drivers will meet at the pits at 9:30am before setting off at 10am.
