Going Pro

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I just wrote a book, Going Pro, for the racers! It is available on Kindle for free download until Sunday. Please pick it up and support a fellow racer who is better at writing than actually riding.

Thanks for the correct link! Yea not trying to spam. I love racing, and I felt like I could tell a decent story that Bikeforums members would be interested in.

Hey, I just read it.

It is a fun read, perhaps a bit short, but conisdering one third of a trilogy I guess that is ok.

I'm interested in the follow up, good luck with it!

Fiction or non fiction?

Your writing style isn't my favorite but so far the book has been good reading before lights out.
