Michael Dunlop’s reaction to smashing the 130mph record at the Isle of Man TT

Dunlop romped to his 25th career race win at the TT on Wednesday, leaving him j♈ust one victory behind the all-time record total that belongs to his uncle Joey Dunlop.
In doing so he smashed the 130mp♏h barrier - registering a new Supersport lap record of 130.403mph.
"I had a w🎃ee bit oꩲf a gap, built a comfortable lead,” he said.
“But kne🦹w the Triumph had a bit more🅺 power, more 'cc's.
"I knew I had to ride the Yamaha to its full pot꧅ential but the wee biꦬke was great. I can't thank my team enough.
"When the gap came down to eight sec🙈onds I knew I had to push on and upped th🌳e game.
"To do the 130m🧸ph𒁃 lap is pretty cool. I knew I could do it - I'm always trying to push the boundaries."
John McGuinness became the first rider to hit 130mph at the Iꦕsle of Man TT in 2007 - he did it on a 1000cc bike.
Dunlop going as fast with 400cc less is a remarkable moment in ꦇTT history and another stunning personal accolade.
He has won four times at this year’s event already, and has three more races to equal the all-time record of 26 w🅘ins.
Peter Hickman also broke the lap record ▨on Wednesday as he cha🌸sed down Dunlop.
Hickmaꦰn posted 130.2mph which was swiftly beaten b♏y Dunlop’s speed, as he finished as runner-up.
