Guy Martin 2013 Calendar

True to form, Guy Martin's first official calendar is nothing like any other rider's merch. Not that I've ever seen, anyway. The calendar has a matt laminate cover with a spot UV varnish (yes, just like his favourite bike mag, Sideburn). Printed in England.
Each month has two John Hancox illustrations of some of Guy's favourite things. These include his Transit van, Snap-On tool cabinet, Volvo hot-rod, Rolls-Royce Merlin aero engine, a 1996 Scania truck and a Lego combine Harvester. The pages have quotes from Guy on what each thing means to him. There are only two motorcycles in the whole calendar and only one picture of Guy.
It costs £13. For that you get the big format calendar, plus signed Guy Martin Photo, Red Torpedo 10% Off Voucher, £20 off Dainese.com, Skull 'n' Spanners Window Sticker and entry to Guy's Christmas draw, plus a 50p donation to the charity 'Spinal Research'.
I think it's great.
Get yours here. G

  1. And one of the two is the Britten, a man of impeccable taste as well as XXXL gonads, too good.

  3. I love the Britten and I rate Guy very highly. One of the owners of the 10 existing Brittens should get Guy to ride one one day for exhibition/charity. Would be epic!
