MASSIVE TURNOUT FOR CRAIG JONES' FUNERAL

A huge crowd today lined the streets in the sleepy Cambridgeshire village of Fotheringhay to pay their final respects to World Supersport rider Craig Jones, who died two weeks ago.

Friends, family, racers and members of public all turned out to say their final farewells to the 23-year-old rider. Tributes were led by former 500GP rider Keith Huewen and Craig's manager Steve Chick.

Doris Valentine, wife of Jack who ran the Valmoto Triumph team for which Craig rode, also read a poem which was written by Craig's sister Cassie.
