Ben Spies book: Taking it to the Next Level


For all you MotoGP fans out there, Ben Spies is launching his book “Taking it to the Next Level” at the upcoming Indianapolis US GP this August.

Available from September 1st, it describes the rise of this 3 times AMA Superbike and 1 time WSBK champion to the pinnacle of motorcycle racing, MotoGP.

The book is written by Larry Lawrence and forwarded by Elbowz’ mentor and biggest fan, Kevin Schwantz who wrote:

“Going back to the American glory years when Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson and I dominated Grand Prix Racing, we were fierce competitors, and each of us was always a threat to win. More than anyone else I’ve seen since that era, Ben really has that same type of ability to ride around problems and race at the highest level, even when the setup isn’t perfect. I know he has the work ethic, and physically and mentally he’s as tough as you need to be. Ben’s in the right place, he’s with a good team, and I think we’ll continue to see great things from him”

This is definitely another must read book for any hardcore racing fan who wants to add to his book collection.
