He says 'racing with Joey' was among his best moments
Being beaten by Joey Dunlop in the Formula One Race at TT2000 is one of Michael Rutter's favourite memories.
The 7-time race winner's announced he'll no longer compete in the Superbike class at the TT.
As a rider he'll focus on just the Supertwin category at this year's event.
Rutter stood on many big bike podiums during his career and sharing the road and the rostrum with Dunlop was very special:
