    I got this book for Christmas so looking forward to reading it. I must admit his whole "I'm just a truck mechanic" thing is wearing thin now...he's not "just" a mechanic when he has multiple successful TV shows, a book deal and major sponsorship.

    Don't let this put you off as it's still a great book.
    He glosses over the free stuff and sponsorship deals almost implying he just lets them use his image in return for kit as he likes their stuff.
    Never mentions the hundreds of thousands he gets.

    His Grandfather must have been Burt Munroe... "When your dead, your dead" was a quote from Worlds Fastest Indian

    And when he got his dog he was saying it was named after you know who, the black Labrador in The Dam Busters as it was the nearest name he could use, in the book he says it's named after some bloke called Nigel

    Totally agree with you Wiltshire Builders

    I was stood very close to him at the Bike Show 4 or 5 years ago looking at the custom bikes, couldn't be arsed to even speak to him. I'm a far bigger fan of Michael Dunlop
