Autobiography: sport; Motorcycle racing
'Just because you're breathing, doesn't mean you're alive!' Let Guy take you on adventures of a lifetime.

'The maddest 12 months of my life. The journey starts with an oddball

race up an American mountain and ends with me checking myself out of

hospital with a broken back. Again .'

As Guy's Latvian grandfather frequently reminded him, 'When you dead, you dead'. So before it's all over, Guy Martin is making the most of the time he's got.

In this past year alone, Guy has raced the Isle of Man TT and finished on the podium; bike trekked through India; competed in solo 24-hour bicycles races; flown a stunt plane; broken a go-kart speed record down a French mountain and attempted to break the motorcycle land-speed record at Bonneville Salt Flats. And he's done all this around his day job as a truck mechanic.

But let Guy tell you about it himself- 'This book starts in a Transit, ends in a Transit, and in between I've raced a few pushbikes, raced a few motorbikes and got a fair few stories to tell you.' Spot on.

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 turned taytie farmer 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 four phenomenal Sunday Times bestselling memoirs? A genuine, one-off marvel.
