Robert Dunlop surely deserves a prominent place in the road racing hall of fame since his race debut in 1979 he has achieved great success, both in Ireland and on the international scene. But how much is really known about this distinguished member of road racing's most famous family? This DVD reveals the real Robert with interviews from those who know him best.

Close family members, mentor Liam Beckett, top motorcycle journalist Jimmy Walker and race promoter Billy Nutt all speak about the rider, who achieved an incredible eight victories in the Cookstown 100 between 1985 and 1993.

The Robert Dunlop Story explores Robert’s strengths, weaknesses and the relationship with his famous older brother Joey. Former race rivals Carl Fogarty, Steve Hislop and Jeremy McWilliams pay tribute to Robert's skills and look back at memorable moments from his career - including some of those infamous crashes. Robert himself is interviewed for the feature, which has plenty of race highlights from his extensive career.

This is a revealing and at times moving portrait of a man who, through his talent, courage and sportsmanship has contributed significantly to the road racing scene. Also included is Robert’s 2006 win at the North West road races in Northern Ireland – he now has fifteen wins on the circuit, the most of any rider in history!
