Guy Martin autobiography

Post by Stig »

Been away on hols and always end up bored when I have no tools to play with...so i took to reading a book as i dont get a chance any other time

This time I was bought Guys book for my previous birthday and decided to save it til I went away

Basically its a good insight into his life, not just about his racing career (although there are times about it scattered throughout the read). The book goes into his upbringing, his deals and goes along way into explaining his way of thinking and how his attitude to racing and the whole celebrity thing developed

A great read and thoroughly entertaining in my opionion. Personally i'd recommend it :thumbsup:

I got it last xmas but not had chance to read it yet.
But everyone I've spoken to who's read it has said it's a good read.

Cheeky young sod. I'm reading (well trying to) Nick Sanders at the moment and that's got pictures in Karl. Are you still trying to plough through last weeks Beano?:finger:
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Karl can. It's the only thing he can manage well apart from colouring books. :lol:
