Reviews

Entertaining, quirky and an enjoyable read from a clever writer * Phil Liggett MBE * Working with Carlton is a rollercoaster ride. Occasionally scary but always a lot of fun. Much like his books * Jo Rowsell, multiple World and Olympic Champion * The tales, stories and experiences from Carlton engross you, it’s almost as if you were there with him in person. Guaranteed to give you a good chuckle! * Hannah Walker, cycling broadcaster * Listening to Carlton Kirby for the first time is like a cyclist doing their first sticky bottle. Before you know it, it's an unescapable and pain-relieving habit * Benji Naesen, Lanterne Rouge Cycling podcast * Carlton Kirby is a legend in the world of cycling. This book is a must for all fans of the sport. Get ready to snort with laughter * David Hunter @cyclingmole * Carlton's calls are more unique, energy-filled, and entertaining than any I have heard. I am sure you'll find the same in this book * Chris Horner, America's most recent Grand Tour winner * Carlton is the ultimate cycling story teller. He has the ability to make big wins legendary. He is a joy for cycling fans globally! * Iljo Keisse, seven-times Six Days of Ghent winner * If races went off on as many tangents as Carlton does during commentary they would be 500km long! ... But working with Carlton on broadcast is like getting a sticky bottle! * Robbie McEwan, three-time Tour de France green jersey winner * Entertaining... Carlton hows no sign of running out of amusing anecdotes... A worthy sequel that will give his fans more of what they like. * Road.cc *
