Summary
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 Martin's grandfather Voldemars 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 dusted himself off after a dramatic crash at the Dunrod 150 Superbike race. 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.
This audiobook is absolutely captivating and offers great insight into the life of an intriguing individual. It even explores our shared understanding of the inner chimp.
I absolutely adored it! This book made me realize that sometimes, you just gotta let your inner chimp loose, you know? Haha, it was such a wild and exhilarating read!
You can totally feel Guy's voice coming through the words, but I had a tough time with the narrator. In certain parts, it felt really forced and lacked that smooth, natural flow. However, it was still pretty cool to gain some insights straight from Guy himself and hear his perspective in his own words, especially on topics that people are so quick to pass judgment on.
