British Superbike star Stuart Easton has led a team of young riders across the Irish Sea for an introductory tour of the Isle of Man Mountain course with a view to taking part.

He was accompanied by NB's Tommy Bridewell, British Supersport Cup star Jenny Tinmouth, European Superstock man Dan Linfoot, BSB's Tom Grant and a host of others.

The riders, all under 30, were given VIP treatment from Rider Liaison Officers Richard ‘Milky’ Quayle and John Barton.

A TT spokesman said: "The trip was also an ideal opportunity for the riders to meet organisers and find out more about the TT and the Isle of Man. They were given DVDs of on-board footage and the PlayStation2 TT Superbikes game to help with the circuit learning process."
