Said I'd give an update on the cancer - it's terminal, and I have about 3 months left..it's been hard having all the conversations that are needed with friends and family
Not a post I was expecting to make, but such is life..my cancer has spread to the peritoneum and is now inoperable..chemo is still on the cards, but it's to halt/decrease any future spread..don't know how long I've got left - best guess is from months to maybe 3 years or so

Remembering โYer Maunโ, 25 years On.
25 years on from his passing, we remember Joey Dunlop, MBE, OBE - a true legend of the TT and one of road racingโs most iconic names.
26 TT wins, 40 podiums, and a legacy that transcends generations. Joeyโs mastery of the Mountain Course defined his career, yet it was his humility, quiet determination, and charitable spirit that earned him a place in the hearts of fans around the world.
This yearโs Classic TT will honour his final victories in 2000 and his everlasting legacy, while on-island fans are invited to take part in a Tribute Parade Lap this evening (Wednesday 2 July), hosted by the Joey Dunlop Foundation. The lap will commence promptly at 19:00hrs from the TT Grandstand.
