Tracy McIntyre, President and CEO of Mr Motorcycle 6020 Gateway East in El Paso  stated “My father turns 70 this year and Mr. Motorcycle is celebrating its 25th anniversary so we decided to celebrate by helping Mathew break this record"

Mathew has a New Mexico State motorcycle drivers license and has passed a MSF rider training course.    

“We rode through Houston and San Antonio Texas in heavy rain and had rain for about one third of the entire trip. Mathew is a very mature 14 year old but riding through Houston Texas in the rain will add years to anyone.  We had a lot of fun, saw lots of sights, met lots of people, and only took one wrong turn”.
