LOCAL riders attended a tribute evening to the late Joey Dunlop at the Newport Towers Hotel.

Chapman Tyrrell Racing helped stage the fund-raising event that saw charities benefit to the tune of more than £1,400.

Dunlop, who was admired all over the world and a winner of 26 Isle of Man TT Races, was tragically killed in Estonia last year and the event was put together by the past president of the Manx Grand Prix Riders Association, George Ridgeon, after the cancellation of this year's event.

Mark Tyrrell, Neil Cudworth and Dave Pither were just a trio of riders to pay their tribute to one of the sport's best-known names.
