Sir, - I congratulate Kevin Meyers on his excellent article about Joey Dunlop, who to my mind will be remembered as the Ayrton Senna of motorcycling. I did not expect Mr Myers to understand the motorcycling psyche, but he did so to my amazement. The motorcycling community of Ireland stretches from Ballymoney to Ballybunion and, as Mr Myers so correctly pointed out, spans social class, religion, and all ages. - Yours, etc.,
Fiachra O'Riordan, Ballymore Eustace, Co Kildare.
