Dear All

The Organisers are busy behind the scenes trying to get everything prepared for the both the Manx International and the Sleepwell Youth Tour which this year has been particularly challenging in terms of the logistics required to put the races on in a safe way for the riders.

We are, as ever going to need a lot of marshals to assist us.  We would therefore be extremely grateful if you could possibly spare some time to assist.

The Manx International is on Sunday 10th April – from 1.30pm

For the Sleepwell Youth Tour, the stages required are as follows:

Saturday 30th April 2016 Peel (8am – 12:30) 28 required

Saturday 30th April 2016 Ellerslie (13:15 – 17:30) 16 required

Sunday 1st May 2016 Bride (8am – 12:30) 30 required

We are aware that there have been a lot of requests for help for the various events being held this year, these requests however really are essential to organisers being able to put on safe racing on the Isle of Man.  This is an opportunity for you to give something back to the sport without sacrificing your own racing!!

If you are able to help, please email:

Manx International: manxinternational@manx.net

Sleepwell Youth Tour:  iomyt@hotmail.co.uk

Many thanks
