Ballymoney homecoming for Michael Dunlop this month

He became most the successful TT rider in history this year

The extraordinary achievements of TT legend Michael Dunlop will be recognised and celebrated in his hometown later this month.

A homecoming will be held for the Northern Irishman at Ballymoney Town Hall at around 5pm on Saturday, 26 October.

It comes after Dunlop became the most successful TT rider in history in 2024 taking four more wins to move onto 29 TT victories in total, surpassing the previous benchmark of 26 held by his uncle Joey Dunlop.

It's understood a number of Michael's bikes will be on display whilst he will also ride his TT winning machine on closed streets through the town.

The MD Racing team says everyone is welcome to attend and hope it will be 'a great event to mark a wonderful achievement.'
