Michaels fitting Tribute to his Father


Michael Dunlop scored a poignant victory at the North West 200 on Saturday, just two days after the crash that killed his father Robert.

Dunlop saw off the challenges of Christain Elkin and John McGuinness after opting to race.

His brother William was also due to compete, but was forced to withdraw due to mechanical problems.

Yes they are an immensely strong family, looks like Micahel and William are going to live up to the family name

I saw Joey in 1999 and got his autograph at the NW 200... then i got Roberts last year at the TT.

Thats a weird coincidence
