World Superbike star Carl Fogarty will visit Kent next month to meet fans and promote his new book, The World According to Foggy.

Carl, known as Foggy, will be at Waterstones in Bluewater to sign copies of the book, released to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Superbike World Championship.

The motorbike racer, known for his fierce riding style and cornering, won ITV's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! in 2014.

His book, The World According to Foggy, will delight the legions of motor sport fans in the UK and takes fans into the memory banks of the charismatic and straight-talking sporting icon, who was as outspoken in the paddock as he was competitive on the track.

It contains lashings of adrenaline-fuelled bikes and electrifying bike racing, as well as revealing the man behind the helmet, his passions and frustrations, and what makes him still leap out of bed in the morning and seize the day.

He'll be at Waterstones in Bluewater on Saturday, April 28 at 11am.

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

The event is free but fans are urged to arrive early and will need a copy of The World According to Foggy to meet Carl. For details call Bluewater Waterstones on 01322 624831.
