Olympian Sir Sir Chris Hoy has partnered with award-winning author Joanna Nadin and Hot Key Books to release a series of children's books, Flying Fergus, which will focus on Fergus - 'an ordinary boy with an extraordinary imagination', who discovers his dad's old rusty bike has 'more to it than meets the eye'.

Hoy, who has seven Olympic medals, commented 'Working with Jo Nadin has been fantastic and my hope is that Flying Fergus excites and inspires children, opening their eyes to the freedom and adventures two wheels can offer with just a little hard work'. The first two books are to be published in March 2016, with further titles in July, October and January 2017.
