    I've been riding motorbikes all my adult life. Isle of Man TT is on my bucket list. Joey Dunlop the legend. RIP.

    I watched an interview with Joey Dunlop a few years back. Couldn't understand one word.

    I have a motorcycling mate, looks a bit like Joey, but does fantastic Joey Dunlop impersonations. The nick name 'Joey' has stuck.

    I went to the island in the early 90s for TT week. Videos don't come close to doing justice to the spectacle. My mate (whose parents we were staying with in Douglas), took me around the circuit on Mad Sunday on a 1200 Yamaha. Fun.
