Teaming up with motorcycle journalist Steve Booth and HarperCollins Publishers, “Dream. Believe. Achieve. My Autobiography” will offer an intimate look into the Northern Irishman’s road to WorldSBK glory, all the way from his first motorcycling escapades to equalling Carl Fogarty’s record 59 race wins. The book is due to be released in October 2018.

Speaking on the announcement, Rea says: “I am really looking forward to working with HarperCollins.  The team has been very supportive of me and my co-author, and long-time friend, Steve Booth.  It’s only now when I recall the last few decades with him I realise the incredibly special journey I am on and those who’ve been part it.  It hasn’t all been plain sailing though and there have been a lot of life lessons learned along the way. This book will be very open and honest about how I’ve been able to make my dreams and ambitions become a reality”.
