Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council members have endorsed a parade in Ballymoney to honour local motorcyclist Michael Dunlop, following a record-breaking 29 Isle of Man TT wins.

At Thursday’s meeting, DUP Councillor Bill Kennedy said the Dunlop family name was “synonymous with motorcycle road racing”.

Independent Councillor Ivor Wallace said the Dunlops were synonymous with both racing and Ballymoney.

Michael Dunlop will be hoping for better luck on his return to Imatra in Finland next weekend, where he is set to compete as a wild card rider at round three of the International Road Racing Championship.

Honour On his previous visit to the legendary street course in 2022, Dunlop – who qualified eighth fastest – never registered a finish in any of the three Superbike races after encountering issues with his Penz13.com Honda Superstock bike.

Dunlop’s uncle Joey was victorious at Imatra in 1986 at a round of the TT Formula 1 World Championship.
