Publisher's Summary

Michael Dunlop is quite simply the greatest road racer on the planet. Brother of William, also an accomplished rider, son of the late Robert and nephew of the late great Joey Dunlop, Michael can fairly claim that racing is in his blood. Now for the first time he talks in depth about his family story, how he got involved in the family business and how he manages to keep getting back on his bike despite all he knows of the deadly risks he encounters every time he crosses the start line.

The death of his uncle during a competition in Estonia in 2000 was followed just eight years later by the death of his father at the North West 200. But despite these tragic losses, Michael was undeterred, and, two days after his father's death, he returned to the North West - and won. The next year Michael won his first TT, joining both his father and uncle in the record books.

Now with 13 TT wins to his name, Michael is a phenomenal competitor, and in this sensational autobiography he reveals the highs and lows of racing, what it was like growing up part of a motorcycle dynasty and how that made him the incredible racing driver he is today.

Bare knuckle fight of a book.

6 Stars.

You don't have to love motorcycles to enjoy this book. Unputdownable, I read it with breakneck speed, just like Michael's laps, a blistering read. I haven't come across a better real life account of men dealing with death, legacy and greatness.

I am so rooting for Michael this TT 2019. There's got to be two Dunlops at the top 2 TT wins leader board. I am hoping it's Michael taking the lead by 2021.

Highly recommended from a motorcyclist and book lover.
