I had the pleasure of meeting this top guy on Monday. I was working in Grimsby and stayed there Sunday night and thought for a laugh see how far away from his work I was.

Well it turns our I was half a mile away so I drove by. About 10minuets later the sandwich van turns up and a minute later, Guy is riding up from the garage to the van so I shouts over to him to say hi. and over he pops! Thumbs Up

Would you like to chat about the motorcycle that he's riding, generally?

It's hardly like he avoids publicity and is camera shy...

If you have read his book, you will know he doesn't like talking much and hates signing stuff. He also dose not like talking about racing.

We chatted about the lorries he is working on, mountain biking and he told me he is off to pikes peak in a couple of months, with a ford f150 style pickup.

I also asked him about Brian the chimp.

would have loved to chat pikes peaks with him. That's on my bucket list Thumbs Up

(pikes peaks, not meeting Guy Martin)

I am rooting for him this year with the tubby bloke out of the running this year

I sat next to an Irish footballer on a flight back from Cork last year.

He was pestered by someone if they could have a selfie with them. Their reason was that their friend was a fan of his team.

To which he replied, "What is your mate like 6 years old".

You have to be fair to Guy, he does have Arse-Poo-Gas syndrome so he really, really doesn't like doing 'people stuff'. I can sympathise, also being sperg, and think he's brave as fuck for doing anything PR related.

Met him at the TT a couple of years ago, got the 'Sperg side. McPint is the exact opposite of that as was the British side car racer whose name always escapes me.

His dog was nice though.
