Twisted Road is lucky enough to have two of Daniel D.'s bikes listed for rent. Read on to learn about his bikes, favorite routes, and you'll never believe where his mom has been!

Tell us about your riding experience. How long have you been riding, and how many bikes have you owned? How did you first become interested in riding?

I've been riding for 16 years. I first got my M1 when I was 19. Over the years I've owned 9 different bikes, everything from BMWs (own 3 currently) to a 2005 Yamaha R6 (my first bike). Right now I own 4. I became interested in bikes when I was in high school. I walked into a dealer and noticed how cheap some of the bikes were, I was probably looking at some 300s or Rebel 250s. I figured bikes were pretty affordable so I'd love to buy one.

Have you taken any long moto trips? Tell us about them - where did you go, where did you stay, who did you ride with?

I haven't taken any road trips, but my mom got her M1 about a year after I got mine. She's gone to Sturgis and everywhere else in between!

Tell us some more about you - where do you live? What kind of work do you do?

I live in Buena Park, California right across the street from Knott's Berry Farm in fact. I work in logistics at UCLA.

What are your hobbies - what do you enjoy doing when you're not riding?

My hobbies include modding my Hemi Ram, Subaru WRX and my Fiat 500 Abarth.

Last question - where do you hope to ride one day?
