The Raging Bull of the Mountain Course

On roads of fire, where legends roam,
A raging bull, with heart of home,
Michael Dunlop, fierce and bold,
With family ties, his story's told.

His brother William, a memory to share,
Lost too soon, but forever in his care,
A painful past, that fuels his drive,
To ride with passion, and a heart alive.

The Dunlop name, a legacy bright,
Joey's nephew, with a champion's light,
Robert's son, with a will to win,
He rides with fire, his spirit within.

With 29 wins, a record to claim,
The Isle of Man TT, his name's in flames,
A Marmite man, with a unique stride,
He ploughs his furrow, with a champion's pride.

His aggressive style, a spectacle to see,
A combative spirit, that sets him free,
With Ducati's might, he's unbeaten and strong,
In Supersport, his dominance all day long.

32 victories, a testament to his might,
49 podiums, shining with delight,
The Mountain Course, his domain and throne,
Michael Dunlop, a legend, all his own.

With every lap, a story unfolds,
Of bravery, skill, and a heart of gold,
The Raging Bull, with a will to prevail,
Michael Dunlop, a hero, without fail.
