Here's a video of Michael Dunlop speaking about winning the race yesterday, certainly brought a tear to my eyes

Well done to all the other riders, Steve Plater won the superbike and both supersport races so reckon we'll see him doing much better at the TT this year

[Borntobewild]

Those races were totally awesome.

Big respect to the riders for brilliant races and amazing entertainment value.

[garymitch]

i watched it last night. very good racing and well done michael dunlop

[Purps]

I was there, and the racing was fantastic.

One of mates managed to snap this pic.

There's a wee dip in the road, and when the bikes hit it flat out, the front wheel comes up.
And that's at scary speeds - the superbikes hit around 200mph on that straight!
