i suggest you look for a copy of . closer to the edge dvd . or just type in guy martin closer to the edge and a full range of guys exploits can be found . guy is the quickest person on a bicycle. look out for his mini series. the boat that guy built. .. the spitfire rebuild . the list goes on .

 

this man has more charisma than most of the so called super star football players , F1 drivers etc . have you heard of david cameron ?

 

i think the only guy you know is the family guy .

dont take offence to this post . what i have done here is to bring your attention to a whole new world of entertainment . enjoy it .

Guy Martin is one of the Motorcyclists, you just want him to win, he's a bit remenicent of the speedway rider that turned up with his bike strapped to the back of a Cortina.

Jumping in, with Guy Martin what you see is what you get: a guy (no pun intended) with a genuine interest in people and machines / vehicles which go quickly prefarably driven by an engine. A mate was involved in a Red Bull Soap Box Derby event, Guy turned up (forget whether he was part of a team or not), he chatted to everyone like he'd known them all his life and was happy to get involved, pick up a spanner and get his hands dirty. I'd be very surprised if he didn't at least have a skid on a speedway bike, find out what made it tick, then have look over the fence at the kart circuit and have spin in a kart. Love him or not, this is a the kind of guy he is: one you'd really want to be interested in speedway....

I genuinely find that hard to believe. You can't watch T.V. or read newspapers in that case. You only follow speedway but I'll bet you've heard of Manchester United and The Beatles.

I haven't the faintest idea who he is. He's just a competitor in another obscure sport. But then I'd struggle to name more than half a dozen cricketers or rugby union internationals.

He does a load more than sport.

He's very into engineering.

 

Made a great series a few years back when he and a mate completely rebuilt a canal boat.

 

Made an alarm clock, shower, bed & mattress, crockery / cutlery. All that kind of stuff.

 

It was hilarious.

I couldn't even name a single player of any Hull footie or rugby teams. My only passing interest has been when both rugby teams were in the position (i.e. about to go under) of requiring the extra income speedway brought. Speedway's pretty much the only sport for me, plus some other motorsports....

I couldnt tell you anyone that plays for man United apart from the one that looks like a potato, but I'm a biker into all forms of motorsport, speedway being my favourite, followed very closely by other bike sports. Guy martin is a total legend.
