We highly recommend WINNERS SINNERS GRINNERS, the third collection of Roadracing World MotoGP Editor Mat Oxley’s stories about motorcycle racing, following The Fast Stuff (2007) and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Racing (2017). The hardback book measures 240mm x 170mm (about 9.4 inches by 6.7 inches) and is full of Mat’s best magazine features, interviews, and blogs from the last  half-dozen years.

There are 80 stories on  214 pages, plus 16 glossy color photo pages. It’s all there, from MotoGP to the Isle of Man TT, World Superbike and beyond, talking to riders and engineers about anything and everything to do with the greatest sport on this planet. And like always, Mat tries to dig deep into these people, to get to the heart and the soul of what they do, how they do it, and why.
