Managing Director of Manx Gas, Alan Bates, a keen motor cyclist himself, praised his staff for their generosity and hard efforts during the TT celebrations; 'In the TT centenary year, we felt it only appropriate to do our bit and raise money in memory of probably the greatest TT rider of them all, Joey Dunlop. The efforts of our staff and the amazing generosity of those buying the memorabilia have been truly inspirational and we know that this donation will be put to good use.
