EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the intense atmosphere of the 1981 Classic TT race. The legendary Joey Dunlop, adorned in his striking Black Protest livery, takes center stage as he lines up on his Honda bike. This image captures a significant moment in motorcycle racing history - a black week for Honda. Fueling their anger was Suzuki's controversial tactics during the Formula One race that year. In a bold move, Honda team manager Barry Simmons decided to make a powerful statement by dressing all his riders and bikes in an all-black ensemble. It was an act of defiance against their rivals' unsportsmanlike behavior. However, despite their unified protest and unwavering determination, fate seemed unkind to Honda that year. Despite Dunlop's exceptional skills and unmatched talent on two wheels, victory eluded them throughout the entire TT event. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how even the most formidable forces can face setbacks and disappointments. Yet it also showcases the resilience and spirit within both Joey Dunlop and the entire Honda team who refused to be defeated by adversity. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us remember not only its historical significance but also pay tribute to those who embody true sportsmanship - pushing boundaries while respecting fair play regardless of triumph or defeat.
