Book Four in the motorcycle travel books - "The Petrolhead Travelogues."
Looking for a gift that’s actually memorable?
Not something that gets opened… then forgotten.
Something they’ll read, laugh at, and talk about long after.
Set against the drizzly backdrop of a 1980s Thatcherite Britain, three good mates, with more enthusiasm than expertise, decide to put together a 'proddie' racing team.
The ‘Bimota Drinking Club’ is formed, and with nothing more than a set of second-hand leathers and a shed full of rusty spanners, the search begins for both the bike, and the talented rider, who can take the team to racing glory.
This true tale of nostalgia and hope, recounts a distant era and a sepia stained snapshot of innocent youth. Set against a backdrop of biker pubs, rock nights and racetracks, the story is filled with laugh out loud humour and yearning for a bygone age, a funny and sometimes sentimental look at a cut-throat world most of us managed to avoid.
Warm, witty, and sharply observed, it’s packed with:
- unforgettable characters
- uncomfortable moments
- near misses and poor choices
- and a distinctly British sense of humour
Perfect for fans of Bill Bryson, Douglas Adams, and real, unfiltered travel writing.
