Synopsis

‘I was never going to sleep in and take it easy, there were worms to catch.’

In August 2015 Guy Martin crashed out of the lead of an Ulster Grand Prix superbike race held on the world’s fastest racetrack. He had invasive surgery to bolt his broken spine and hand back together, and within days he decided he needed some time away from road racing. But he wasn’t about to take it easy …

In his brand new book, discover how Britain’s favourite daredevil fills his time when road racing is taken out of the equation.

He set about breaking records on the world’s biggest Wall of Death, cycling 2,745 miles across the length of the United States (while sleeping rough), attempting to be the fastest person ever on two wheels and travelling to Latvia to investigate his family’s roots.

There’s some thrilling racing too, including wild Harley choppers on dirt and turbo-charged Transit vans through the Nevada desert. And there’s the day job to get back to in North Lincolnshire – the truck yard and the butty van.

This book was a last resort having run out of my books for holiday reading and a 5 hour plus 1.5 hour flights ahead of me to get home. I’m glad I read it. It was easy to read as it was pretty much written in the way Guy Martin speaks with warmth, passion and humour mixed with modesty and pride. Do n......more

Guy is the man I enjoy watching on tv the most. So down to earth and does challenges he finds interesting or will stretch him personally. He just wins at life and that will do for me. The second of his books I’ve read and I’ve seen all his tv shows. Makes me smile to think that every Monday he’s back m......more

A refreshing read. Guy Martin is a legend, he's a straight talking grafter and id living his best life. I admire his attitude to work/life balance. He portrays life exactly as he sees it, no bullshit, just says it as it is. Life is not a straight line, the best laid plans don't always go to plan, that......more

Goodreads review by Steve on August 06, 2018

If you are interested in engines, fast motorbikes and vehicles and mechanics this is the book for you. I'm not so found it a bit of a struggle. I am a cyclist though and found the section on Guy's cycling of the Tour Divide interesting and inspiring but that is only about half the book. But even tha......more
