Title: A world exclusive tribute to motorcycling legend Joey Dunlop Post by: Mago on January 13, 2016, 02:16:59 pm Belfast Newsletter A world exclusive tribute to motorcycling legend Joey Dunlop will be staged during February’s Carole Nash MCN London Motorcycle Show. Widely acclaimed as the world’s most naturally talented road racer, Dunlop is synonymous with the Isle of Man TT, where his tally of 26 victories sets him aside as the most successful rider ever to tackle the infamous Mountain Course. With the help of the Dunlop family, the show will feature a collection of memorabilia from Joey’s career, including some of his iconic machines, trophies, race leathers, helmets and personal items rarely seen by those outside of his family. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Ballymoney great’s debut at the TT and the special display in London will provide fans with a unique glimpse into Joey’s illustrious career. Rob Aherne, Managing Director of Motorcycling at Bauer Media, said: “Joey Dunlop is a true icon of motorcycling and we’re incredibly proud to be bringing together this tribute to him. Much of the display has never been seen in public before, so it’s a must for anyone who loves racing.” The show will take place at the Excel London from February 12-14 and tickets are on sale now. |
