‘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.

Product description

About the Author

Except for one summer spent sleeping inside a truck in a concrete yard in Northern Ireland, Guy Martin has lived within 20 miles of the Grimsby hospital he was born in, on the 4th November 1981. But that hasn’t stopped the professional truck mechanic from winning multiple international road races, plus scoring fifteen Isle of Man TT podiums. Nor has it prevented him from becoming a regular face on prime-time Channel 4, presenting critically acclaimed documentaries and travelogues, as well as his popular returning series Speed with Guy Martin. Did we mention he’s also the author of three phenomenal number-one bestselling memoirs? Not bad for a truck fitter.

Guy, as Guy is

Guy, as Guy is.

There is an honesty about Guy that is very appealing. In this respect, it makes him a very good role model. I know that the Brian in him upsets people, but because someone is good at something, it doesn't mean we own him.

How on earth he managed to cycle from Alaska to Mexico is beyond me. Thanks for the insight into his life.

Get inside Guy Martins head!

7 January 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Not a demanding read but insightful about sums it up. Martin spends a little too much time self deprecating to the point where you wonder if he really believes what he says he thinks of himself! Non the less, the book gave me a much clearer insight into a clearly competent athlete and technically able Motorsport enthusiast. The writing style is well suited to the potential audience this book will be aimed at, mainly blokes and with an understanding of the demands placed on both men and machines when trying to break records or indeed set them. Definitely worth a read and has set me up to look at his other books which to date had largely passed me by

Gritty but not Grotty

26 January 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

A splendid story of a hard Lincolnshire mechanic who really is an engineer. His accounts of making precision parts for his bikes made me wish for more details of this aspect of his abilities.
His cycling feats are athletic without the celebrity coach a few yards behind in the Range rover.
Filling up with calories and just going for it reminded me of The Great Wilson stories in the 1950 s Rover comic.

Had me glued

4 August 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Well as per the last two, over the past few days I have been glued to this. There is something just totally relatable to Guy, the bloke who you want to cheer on as he just does what he wants to do. One of the most interesting things for me is reading how Guy's thoughts and views change throughout the book and the way he shows how his thought process works. Loved it to bits, can't wait for the next one!

Interesting insight!

An interesting insight into the complexities of the man himself!
The comments he makes about his inner chimp fascinates me!
It's there in me, although I never recognised it until recently!
Thanks for letting us into your world Guy!

Great read.

Very interesting and funny read. I think Guy is a down to earth man. While he is doing tv work, his feet still seem planted firmly on the ground. He does some stuff to push himself physically and mentally.

Another great journey with Guy.

25 February 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Another great book from a straight talking man. From his epic bike ride across America to fixing trucks in Grimsby, a journey of contrasts, Guy never loses his sense of humour and grip on reality. One to return to time and time again.

Good old Guy never fails to disappoint.

23 December 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I bought this as a present for someone who included it on their wish list. They love Guy Martin and regularly watch his programmes and read any new books he writes. I know he's enjoying it because he's reading for longer before he puts the light out and chuckles every now and again.
