TV mini series Speed with Guy Martin

Fascinating insight into Guy Martin as he undertakes 5 different speed records. What struck me was that he is addicted to speed, going fast that is, and that winning is a by product. This may lie behind why he has not pulled off a TT win to date. Also he was astonished at the fitness demands placed on him by top athletes. He is very fit in comparison to everybody else but not to Olympic athlete standard. Perhaps this is what 5 TT wins in a week Ian Hutchinson meant when he said " He'll never win one until he drops that truck fitter shit "
