The Hairy Bikers Cookbook is coming soon

Following on from this year's popular Hairy Bikers BBC Two television series,
the two big bearded bikers - Dave Myers and Simon King - are preparing to
recreate their mixture of motorcycle tales and delicious delicacies from around
the world with the launch of a new book, aptly named The Hairy Bikers Cookbook.

The BBC television series was first broadcast in January, and enthusiasts
regularly tuned in to see the lads ride bikes including BMW R1200 GS machines
in a variety of destinations all over the world. Their love of food and travel
soon became apparent as the pair rode in search of authentic culinary delights
and diverse cultural experiences, including the world's best barbeque (in
Namibia) and the secret of the perfect stew (while touring Ireland).

From salt-baked crayfish to caramelised bananas, The Hairy Bikers Cookbook is
full of tantalising recipes designed to sizzle the taste buds of passionate
cooks and bikers everywhere. Combined with beautiful illustrations,
behind-the-scenes images, anecdotes and gourmet tips, the book is the perfect
way to learn more about delicious food discovered, cooked and eaten by two
charismatic northern bikers.

The World of BMW has six signed copies of The Hairy Bikers Cookbook to give
away. To be in with a chance of winning, enthusiasts are invited to visit the
www.worldofbmw.com website and click on the competition banner before 30 April.

Published by Penguin, The Hairy Bikers Cookbook will be available in all good
bookshops from 6 April, priced £20. The second series of The Hairy Bikers
Cookbook can be seen on BBC Two every Wednesday at 8pm.
