He is the epitome of a road racer in my eyes. No PR bullshit and does what he wants. Legendary

@chrissyp7433 Год назад

Old school press, media and advertising ruins it. I don't blame him for me he is still the best road racer and not just for his racing.

@jimgolden886 Год назад

Agreed total legend

@AK-pulco Год назад

I'll remember for the rest of my life the first time I saw Michael Dunlop. It was at the NW200 in 2016 at Black Hill. I knew absolutely nothing and no one about road racing. The way he went down the hill, so much faster than the others, wheeling until the front wheel finally touched the ground so he could turn while frolling the sidewalk and he kept the same line lap after lap. I was speechless, I asked a man who this guy was and he told me about the Dunlop family. I'll never forget that moment.

Class m8 . Yeah a family of legends. Have u seen the film road

@garyabblett3128 Год назад

I don’t think Michael gets the credit he deserves, he is most likely going to be the winningest TT rider of all time but, because he shuns the limelight it somehow goes under the radar. I love listening to him. Top man. I think he’ll catch McPint this year.

@motomat2 Год назад

Its Blowing in the wind,No other than Yer Man..

@Anyonewhos Год назад

It's not that he doesn't get credit. I think all seasoned TT fans know him well enough and know he likes to be unsociable. So it's generally just a bit of respect to leave the man alone. He's had a lot of suffering in his family when it comes to road racing alone. I get what you mean thou but honestly I think he prefers everything as it is.

@Anyonewhos Год назад

Also.. I commented this before the podcast even started and his first words pretty much sum up my comment. 👍

@bluebee7689 Год назад

I don't rate e bikes as tt wins I believe m d has more proper tt wins and not 1 lap wonders . GO MICHAEL DUNLOP

@garyabblett3128 Год назад

@@bluebee7689 unfortunately it’s not down to you and the history books shows them as wins, so until MD wins another 3, he won’t be passed McPint in the official record books, like it or not.

@gerryjamesedwards1227 Год назад

I think that part of the respect we all have for Michael is because he's always let his performances speak for themselves.

The name is legendary to road racing , even after a century they still speak of the dunlops . Everyone cried with him in the first race after joey passed . For sure nobody will forget them

@fcorby Год назад

Michael is Micheal, and as much as people try to get him to open up, and be part of the pack, he won't and doesnt need to and shouldn't change his ways for anyone. He's definitely a Legend...

@CrewGuyPJ Год назад

Ive seen interviews where he has (somewhat) opened up. He has a sense of humor and really showed he is a thinker as well. Nothing but respect for the Bull.

@hazzaj9414 Год назад

Lump in my throat a few times during that! Well done! MD such a talented racer. Doesn’t get the credit he deserves 100%

Only recently got into motorcycling and read about his family and how many members he lost to crashes ,may the creator protect him and keep him and others involved in these sports safe 🙏🏾

@NiSiochainGanSaoirse 3 месяца назад

Amen. We all need love and protection, but some of us need a little bit more. I love Michael to bits, and hope the good lord saves the family any more heartache.

Well done guys getting MD , can`t wait for part two. Like many I`m a massive fan of MD , he`s his own man and that`s what makes him so addictive .

@spikodemiko5514 Год назад

Been waiting for this one to happen but wasn’t sure it ever would. Michael is a great genuine guy. Straight talking with not an ounce of BS. A real breath of fresh air. Good luck for TT 2023.

Legitimately the most incredible but equally tragic family legacy in the history of all sport. Dunlop the name Itself is the epitome of road racing worldwide. A different breed. Ride on Michael ride on.

A lot of racers stop being themselves to please “the man” as they say. Michael has always been himself. Well spoken Michael a great interview and good luck for the 2023 TT

@devenair681 Год назад

My favourite road racer. Can't wait to see him back on it. No bullshit just gets on with it and tells it like it is. Proper character. 👍👍🙂🙂

@luiscortes2445 Год назад

I saw Michael last year on the Suzuki Classic Superbike at the Manx GP. Impressive, always the first on track during practice and we felt that he wanted more than the others... He's got the rage, that's obvious... I saw his uncle Joey in 85, 86 and 87 and it would be nice if 2 Dunlops could be the ones who won the TT the most times... Greetings to all TT fans from Lausanne-Switzerland... ✌ 🇨🇭

@barrymccloskey Год назад

Legend and a gentleman. Love his mention of Craig Breen, very eloquent. And no bullshit.

@Llanychan Год назад

A true champion and very truthful. In my opinion the greatest road racer of all time. No showboating by MD - thankfully

@branthurley2285 Год назад

Ballymoney & the Dunlops have given us all so much. Joey, Robert & William are already gods. Hope it's a long time before Michael sits beside them. Good luck, MD.

One of the main things that bring us to racing is the adrenaline rush you get, it’s like everything slows down, but at the same time a super rush!!…… Congrats Michael!!!

@gaylenescott1317 Год назад

How awesome is this! To be able to hear where he comes from is confirmation of the legend he is in his own mind is a man after my own heart...... Very genuine! He doesn't have to prove who he is.... He just gets on with it! I've been watching from behind the scenes for over 12 years now, and he's truly come into his own and I wish him all he wishes for himself, from South Africa....I believe he came here, but I wasn't aware..... Would love to meet him!🍀🇿🇦

@ManxAndy Год назад

Thankyou for this one……Michael is probably the most down to earth rider at the TT, he says it as it is….and he does the rest of his talking on the bike, plus if you meet him outside of the paddock, he’s a very quiet polite lad, there’s no side to him…..what you see is what you get, and he’s going to get the acclaim of being the new King of the Mountain, maybe not this year, but it will come I’m sure , big up the Bull - MD…..👍💪🇮🇲👌

@chrispritch Год назад

Michael adds another record to his tally. He's take the lead of the quickest expletive on the podcast - 1.432 seconds.

@brianbrennan5112 Год назад

I was luck enough to meet Michael's Uncle Joey, saw his Dad & Joey racing many times and of course have massive respect for William, sadly taken so young, but I have to say what a fantastic Rider and overall person MD is, just a great, great person. 24 Carat Dunlop!

@John_Wood_ Год назад

Was at the NW last weekend. The Bull was taking lines through fast corners that others could only dream about. Shame he didn't have more success. The riders that won are typically very small and lightweight and maybe that makes all the difference.

@rhyscasey7604 Год назад

@staalbal1460 Год назад

He has a good chance in the Superbikes this year as well. Had amazing pace in the second lap of the first race at NW200. Miles quicker than anyone else and retired. I assume it was tyre issues again. I hope he did the smart thing and changed tyres for the IoM TT

It seems a bit ironic to me that the TT has always been seen by most as the most dangerous race in the world ,but Joey,Robert and William were killed somewhere else.

@SteveNinetyski Год назад

For one, that isn't ironic. Secondly, that is a daft thing to say...they ride and race bikes every day for years so chances are they wouldn't crash to their death during that specific week. If you drive on the deadliest motorway for 2 weeks per year but drive on slightly less deadly motorways for 50 weeks per year where do you think you'd be more likely to die?
