Guy Martin is a thoughly nice and down to earth chap,yes he does drink a lot of tea during his working day.His dad Ian runs a Scania deqlership that Guy used to work at up until quite recently.They are both as mad as each other in their quest for speed on two wheels.Ian used to race and still has a couple of classic race bikes that he uses.As Albs pointed out Guy is not normally slow with anything and that includes talking too !

I have a very nasty case of Lazydockers back, so conversing with a treachorous scouse git is not going to help my mood.

Or a sad pedantic git.
