Reminder to all, in New Zealand, they are 13 hours in front, therefore when the Virgins race at 7:30 AM local time, begins race day at Wanganui, back in the UK it will be 8:30 PM.
Cemetery Circuit specialists Tony Rees, Sloan Frost and Horst Saiger, are all set for a new challenge on boxing day as 13 times TT winner Michael Dunlop competes against them, as he makes his much anticipated Wanganui debut.
