Just in case somebody doesn´t know this: here´s my favorite footage from Joey Dunlop on the Isle of Man. He´s riding a V4 Honda in 1983 on a training lap with a big camera on top of the tank. I can´t see this video without acelerating heartbeat.
The interwiew is very interesting, although I have trouble to follow his northirish accent. It´s showing him as a shy and modest character, who was accidentally the best road racer in history. R.i.P.

Awesome! I love it at 1:15 in Part 3, where he says he'd always wanted to stop by that pub for a pint as he literally flies past it at 180 mph. Laughed out loud.

I had read and heard about the TT most of my life, but when it came to HD Theater I was hooked. Thanks for the chance to ride with Joey.
