{"product_id":"what-if-i-had-never-tried-it-the-autobiography","title":"What If I Had Never Tried It: The Autobiography","description":"What If I had Never Tried It is the first autobiography of arguably the worlds greatest motorcycle road racing champion  Valentino Rossi. Certainly he is the greatest in modern times and similarly the best loved. This is the official  personal story: fast paced yet insightful. Rossis record in the motorcycle road racing World Championship is supreme. First in the ultra-competitive 125 class starting in 1996; then in the 250 class only to graduate shortly thereafter to the big league of the 500s. In 2002 the premier class switched direction moving from 500 cc two-strokes to 990 cc four-strokes from then on to be known as MotoGP. Rossi rides for Honda and wins. He wins on a Honda the next year and then switches to Yamaha  to every race fans surprise  and wins against all odds. He wins again in 2005. No one is close. No one is faster. And all at speeds which approach 200 mph. Both on and off-track  on the ubiquitous TV screen or walking in the street  Rossi is idolized as though he were a rock star. From his native Italy to California  from Philips Island to Laguna Seca  he has raised the limits  reshaped the frontiers of the sport and set new trends. Rossi has become the 21st Century face of motorcycle road racing. Yet he remains faithful to himselfone moment the intelligent  articulate interviewee; the next a jokester; the next the single-minded  focused  strategic racer with split-second skills the rest of us can only dream of.","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44888949981237,"sku":"ByrdShop_0760326827","price":30.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_0760326827_de132164-9a26-442a-8106-c1bd809f9dc8.jpg?v=1772202902","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/what-if-i-had-never-tried-it-the-autobiography","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
