Sad news guys, Robert died of injuries after a crash at the NW200 last night, I believe his 250 siezed when flat out and threw him off, he was struck by another machine and died of his injuries at hospital. The guy had a few problems probably the main one being not knowing when to stop, but he was popular. Up there with Joey now.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

Growing up in the Isle of Man, i've got good memories of watching Joey and Robert at the TT, its a massive loss to road racing, and another big loss in a short space of time. RIP Robert Dunlop & Martin Finnegan. I'll be supporting Roberts sons at the TT this year.

Living in the IOM I too watched the Dunlop brothers with awe. Robert did well to come back after his crash in 1994. Another great loss for motor racing and the Dunlop family
