Publisher`s Notes:
Chris Walker`s first book recreates his zest for life, passion for bikes, but most-of-all, his unique sense of humour. It includes not only the inside story of his racing, but revelations of his and fellow riders` more `racy` exploits.
Chris will also expose some of the inner demons that are rarely shown to the public. Major storylines include:
A childhood surrounded by bikes, and his first girlfriend: `She was 13 going on 21 and had the biggest boobs I have ever seen.`
A catalogue of broken bones: just weeks after spending four months in plaster following a serious road bike accident, he almost severed his other leg when motocrossing.
The classic season-long ding-dong battle with arch-rival Neil Hodgson, which went to the courts over disputed points.
The loyal support, and exploits, of his five-strong 18-stone posse of mates known as the `Big Lads` and the less-welcome attentions of Joan, a fully-fledged stalker:
A switch to Carl Fogarty`s race team: `The bike caught fire during practice at Silverstone and I jumped off to avoid serious injury, but not before all my pubic hair had burnt off!`
His battles with the debilitating Bell's Palsy.
His long-awaited first World Superbike win from the back of the grid at Assen in 2006.
Told in Chris`s inimitably self-deprecating style - and with all the drama of the 2007 BSB season - the book breaks the mould of recent motorcycling autobiographies.
