Forever Playboy by Ian Simpson SIGNED
Signed copies available while stocks last
Ian Simpson is one of Scotland's greatest ever motorcycle racers.
A five-time British champion and triple Isle of Man TT winner, he was the last man to win the British Superbike and Supersport 600 championships in the same year.
'Simmo' was also a double Scottish champion, a triple International Classic Grand Prix champion, a European Classic Endurance champion and winner of five North West 200 races and two Ulster Grands Prix.
He raced against Carl Fogarty, Joey Dunlop, Steve Hislop, Niall Mackenzie, lim Moodie and many other all-time greats, in an era when riders still liked to have fun and regularly found themselves in trouble. He also lost a lot of friends along the way.
"Forever Playboy takes readers behind the scenes of a racer's life and reveals it's not all glamour and glory. Simmo's brutally honest account of what it takes to be a champion in one of the world's most dangerous sports is as hilarious as it is sad, but it's never anything other than fascinating.
So, snap your visors down for a thrill ride like no other, as 'Forever Playboy provides an all-access pass into the adrenalin-soaked world of Superbike racing.
