Boy Racer special edition: Cavendish's Gob Racer.

Can Mark Cavendish hack it as a writer? Based on his new special edition autobiography, the answer is a resounding yes.

For an extra $5 -- that's 4.052 euros to you folks across the ocean -- you can buy a slightly expanded edition of Boy Racer.

The version contains a extra chapter on spitting and chronicles Cavendish's latest escapades running his mouth off --- thus the slightly altered "Gob" version.

Juicy details include why Cavendish thinks Andre Greipel's thighs are too thick, how he discovered Riccardo Ricco was a parasite and why Heinrich Haussler is difficult to hit with spit.
