Festival of Jurby today

by isleofman.com 29th August 2009

If you fancy a day with a difference head north this afternoon (Sunday).

The first 'Festival of Jurby' takes place today.

It's been organised by the local branch of the Vintage Motorcycle Club, which has organised this year's 37th annual Vintage Motorcycle Rally for the first time.

There'll be a track session for around 300 bikes, an avenue of classic cars, a display of old buses, a stream engine, car boot sale and auto jumble.

It's also hoped sidecar driver Nick Crowe who was badly injured in this year's TT will be able to attend the event to thank those who have been raising funds for him and passenger Mark Cox.

Treasurer of the local branch of the Club, Rupert Murden, says the day is a big gamble for the club but he's hoping it will become a big event for the Island.
