About The Author
Titch Cormack
Steve ‘Titch’ Cormack served for eleven years with the Royal Marine Commandos and another ten with the Special Boat Service. He saw active service throughout the Middle East and North Africa and around the world both in conventional and covert operations. As a specialist in mobility operations, his final appointment within the special forces was the Chief Mobility Instructor. He was medically discharged in 2016 after complications due to multiple operational injuries throughout his career. Despite these injuries, the lifelong passion for riding and racing motorcycles, at which he competed for the military, has endured and he still races nationally to this day. On retiring from the military he followed his ambition to create a motorcycle social hub and workshop ‘ The S-Bomb vintage workshop’, building custom motorbikes and cars, and starred in a TV series “The Speedshop”, pushing his vehicles and himself to the limits over some of the toughest terrain on earth. He appears regularly on television, as a public speaker, and even made The Times’ ‘TV Hard Men Hotlist’, generating vast amounts of banter from his former comrades.
