Meet Michael Bergeron and John Martin, authors of the thrilling story "The Ride of Their Lives: The Untold Story of the Legendary Timely Writer and the Martin Family". In this story, readers are taken on a journey that blends history, family, and the thrill of an unforgettable adventure.
There will be Story Highlights & Autograph Signings with Co-Authors, Timely Writer Memorabilia, Mint Julep Tasting & Derby Fare, Best Dressed Contest -Best Dressed Derby Fascinators & Jackets, 2025 Derby Picks!

The untold story of the legendary Timely Writer and his blue-collar owners from Boston chronicles the Martin brothers' rags-to-riches fairy tale story as they take on the horse racing establishment during the 1980s. Purchased by two brothers and butchers from Boston, Timely Writer rises from a horse nobody wanted to one everyone needed to call their own. Crowned the "people's champion," and with comparisons to the great Seabiscuit, the tale of Timely Writer brings the colt to the brink of immortality as the overwhelming favorite for the 1982 Kentucky Derby and Triple Crown races. Join along with the Martin family for an emotional roller coaster ride aboard Timely Writer as their story spreads from Boston throughout the country.
Refreshments will be served.
All are welcome - no registration required!
