Spurgeon has had the pleasure of riding motorcycles all over the world. From dirt trails to race tracks his preferred method of adventure is on two wheels. Originally a history teacher, he loves the stories that lie beneath the surface, waiting to be told. He likes crashing Austrian adventure bikes, pulling Iron Butt rides on his well worn Triumph Bonneville, and arguing against turbo systems on motorcycles. When not riding, Spurgeon can be found hiking with his family, pedaling mountain bikes with his son, repairing six-stringed instruments in his basement, and preaching the superiority of record players over iPods (R.I.P.).
