Hundreds escort Hamilton cortege

Mon, 05 Sep 2011

Hundreds of bikers have provided an escort for the cortege of a biker killed during Manx Grand Prix.

Wayne Hamilton's body arrived in Northern Ireland yesterday.

Bikers escorted the 20 year old along the motorway from Belfast to Craigavon.

Hamilton died following a crash at the 13th milestone during the Junior race last Monday, just two days after winning the Newcomers' A Race in his debut at the event.

An initial hearing for the inquest into the death heard he died from multiple injuries.
