Unlike some publications which will, doubtless, emerge from the woodwork, this tribute to the life and career of the late, great Joey Dunlop has not been hurried to the presses following Joey's tragic and untimely death. Rather, it is the result of 10 years painstaking work by former TT winner Ray Knight and is officially sanctioned by the TTRA.
With the understanding only a fellow competitor can bring to the subject, Ray provides an exhaustive and insightful look into one of Britain's most famous racers, and in particular, the Isle of Man TT races.
The research into his exploits over the years have produced a number of anecdotes that reveal a little of the character of the man, particularly his resourcefulness.
My (Ray Knight) own 36 racing career pales into insignificance compared to Joey's but it has enabled me to be a part of the racing arena where he has become so famous and to ride in many of his notable races.
The Northern Irish star is without a doubt the most successful TT rider with 26 wins and an OBE under his belt. Born into a racing dynasty - his brothers, Robert and Jim and two nephews, Michael and William all shared a love for the sport - it is almost as if racing was in his blood. With a career spanning 25 years and being named Motorcycle News' fifth greatest motorcycling icon ever in 2005, these images are a precious way to remember a legend.
