Injury. Adrenaline. Addiction. These are the things that fuelled
one man's race to international stardom as he pushed boundaries and
took life on and off the bike to the limits. Starting out as a
talented youth riding the desert tracks of California, his reckless
nature and incredible talent earned him a position in the rarefied
world of professional motorcycle racing. Despite the success in his
professional life, his personal life was crumbling around him -
John was battling with depression and temptation, which began to
threaten his career, health and marriage, ultimately bringing him
to a life of alcoholism, addiction and even smuggling. In his
remarkable memoir, one of the world's most renowned riders takes us
on a raw and unique journey to the extremes of fast living. John
'Hopper' Hopkins is an icon for motorsport fans worldwide. He won't
let anything hold him back. He has broken almost every bone in his
body (twice), suffered a bleed on the brain, and had a finger
amputated... yet he continued to race. Finally, at the age of 35 -
with his latest crash at Brands Hatch in 2017 putting him in rehab
for two years - he decided to hang up his helmet. Leathered tells
the incredible story of an unparalleled career. From bone-crunching
injuries and alcohol-fuelled antics to the breakdown of his
marriage, it unveils the true stories behind the lurid headlines.
