Carl Fogarty to Visit Waterstones Bluewater

Racing champion and TV personality Carl to meet fans from 11am on Saturday 28th April

Carl will be at the bookshop in the shopping centre’s West Village at 11am on Saturday 28th April to meet fans and sign copies of his new book, ‘The World According to Foggy’.

The World According to Foggy

Published to coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the Superbike World Championship, The World According to Foggy will delight the legions of motor sport fans in the UK and beyond, and will be lapped by those who have enjoyed books by Valentino Rossi, Guy Martin, Michael Dunlop, John McGuinness, Ian Hutchinson and Freddie Spencer.

Foggy’s scintillating new book takes his fans into the memory banks of this most charismatic and straight-talking of sporting icons, transporting them into the weird and wonderful world of this endearingly quirky hero of the track.

The World According to Foggy contains lashings of adrenaline-fuelled bikes and electrifying bike racing, thrills and spills galore, but it will also reveal the man behind the helmet, his passions and frustrations, what makes him still leap out of bed in the morning and seize the day – ultimately, what makes this great man tick and explains his enduring popularity.

One of the most instantly recognisable figures in motorsport, Carl Fogarty is a racing legend known for his fierce riding style and epic cornering, as outspoken in the paddock as he was competitive on the track, and the most successful rider in the history of World Superbike championships.

Lead bookseller Dami Olajoyegbe says: “We’re thrilled to have a sporting hero signing in our store! Carl’s down-to-earth humour will make this a fun event.”

This event is free of charge but fans are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment. Fans must have a copy of ‘The World According to Foggy’ in order to meet Carl. For further information contact Waterstones Bluewater on 01322 624831.
