Chris Stewart comparte con el lector una de las experiencias más insólitas de una vida ya de por sí asombrosa. Todo comienza de forma fortuita cuando una amiga le ofrece un trabajo tentador: ser el patrón de un velero para navegar en las islas griegas. La propuesta parece un sueño hecho realidad, si no fuera por un pequeño inconveniente: Chris no ha navegado en su vida, ni sabe por dónde empezar. Con abundantes dosis de ingenio e hilarante autocrítica, Chris narra su iniciación a la vela, desde un neblinoso puerto de la costa inglesa hasta su particular odisea por aguas mediterráneas rumbo a la isla de Spetses. Y como guinda, una inolvidable peripecia a través del Atlántico Norte por la ruta del legendario explorador escandinavo Leif Eriksson. Reseñas:«Chris escribe con un vitalismo optimista, rebosante de gracia y franqueza.»Jordi Pigem, Culturas «Tres maneras de volcar un barco [...] nos recuerda que la vida es una oportunidad maravillosa y nos incita a exprimirla.»Pascual Perea, Territorios
Trials and Error
by Dougie LampkinFormer trial biking world champion Dougie Lampkin's superb autobiography gives a unique insight into one of motorsport's most famous dynasties as well as revealing the inspiration that led him to become an online sensation thanks to his extraordinary Red Bull stunts. When Dougie Lampkin was born, his father had placed a motorcycle next to his cot before he returned from hospital - if anyone can say that they were destined for a career in motorbiking it was him. So far, nine members of the Lampkin family have competed at a high level of the sport, but it was Dougie who set new standards, winning seven consecutive outdoor world titles and five indoor world titles, earning him the MBE at the age of 25. Off-road motorcycling continues to grow in popularity, with more than 100,000 people taking part in the UK alone, and millions more following online or on television. In this superb memoir, Lampkin brings the excitement of his sport vividly to life. He also shares the behind-the-scenes drama behind some of his most famous Red Bull challenges - such as the day he took his trials bike for a ride through Red Bull's Formula One factory, with Christian Horner looking on in sheer amazement as he rode his bike over a multi-million-pound F1 car, leaving it without a scratch. To date, almost 12 million people have watched this episode on YouTube. For anyone who enjoyed the books of Guy Martin or Michael Dunlop, Trials and Error is a compelling read and one ride you won't want to miss.
