TT star gets behind Rob Vine fund raiser

by isleofman.com 2nd June 2009

He's a giant of the event, and now a giant photograph of John McGuinness is going on display in a Douglas supermarket to raise funds for a TT charity.

The 14 times winner will be at Tesco this morning to launch a raffle for the huge airborne shot of himself on his way to winning last year's Senior race.

It was taken by Graham Knutt, a night crew worker at Tesco, whose two passions are motorcycling and photography.

Graham's hoping to raise thousands of pounds for the Rob Vine Fund which provides paramedic gear around the course and in the two air ambulances.

John McGuiness will unveil the photo and start the raffle at 11am.
