  • Ben Spies - Back in the Paddock
    Sep 25 2024

    Ben Spies is celebrated as one of America's greatest motorcycle roadracing talents. The Texan's illustrious career includes multiple AMA Pro championships, a World Superbike Championship in his rookie year, the MotoGP Rookie of the Year award, six MotoGP podiums, and numerous other accolades. He will be remembered as one of the last Americans to reach MotoGP the untraditional way, embodying the “Good Ole’ Days” of American motorcycle road racing.


    Despite his incredible achievements, Ben was often seen as introverted or standoffish, perhaps misunderstood by many. Now, a decade into retirement, the new and improved Ben 2.0 has resurfaced in the MotoAmerica paddock full-time as a team principal (or "mascot," as he humorously claims).


    Nowadays, he can often be found with a smile on his face, enjoying life with his wife and two daughters. In this episode, we dive into Ben’s story, exploring the journey that shaped him into a fierce competitor and what he’s learned about life since hanging up his leathers. We hope you enjoy and gain insights into one of the greats of our sport.
