Race of the Year 1985 Mondello Park Joey Dunlop Part 1.MPG


This year I raced a 350lc at this race and seen myself walking around in the background at the sixth minute part in leathers with a white stripe on the chest,My race transporter was a Ford Cortina with a trailer and a two man tent ,I should have some pics we took of Joey that weekend with the camera on his helmet,In the second part they mention Gary Cowan he was my main source of secondhand race tyres at that time,I was very young but they were good times and in the next couple of years on a tz250 i got to race against some famous names before a roadbike accident put a end to it,,,

Irish Road Racing 2004 - Mid-Antrim 150 - Superbike highlights


Enjoy this race and watch for Darren Lindsay,s save at the end real heart in the mouth stuff but keep in mind just how dangerous this sport is with four out of the top five no longer with us and i could name some others mentioned in the commentary gone also,its exciting and great to watch but the price is too high i sometimes wish i wasn,t so addicted to it ,,,,

1997 - Onboard at the North West 200


There was a lot of hassle at last years NW200 but hopefully 2012 will be kinder to it,i am definatly looking foward to it and will try and see the practices next year,This is onboard with Alan Patterson a two stroke specialist,its takes courage to hold a two stroke race bike flat in top for so long you would need a quick clutch hand .
