Chris Swallow died following crash at Ballaugh
An inquest has heard a rider who died during this year's Classic TT suffered an "unsurvivable head fracture".

The 37-year-old, who was born in Huddersfield but lived in New Zealand, was killed in a crash at Ballaugh during the Senior Classic TT race last month.
Mrs Hughes also offered her condolences to his family.
