Pipe Dreams Podcast (And Video) E20: Ben Spies – Back In The Paddock

© 2024, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc. From a press release issued By Pipe Dreams Podcast:

Episode 20 of the Pipe Dreams Podcast hosted by MotoAmerica racers Corey Alexander and James Rispoli is available now. This episode features multi-time AMA Superbike Champion, 2009 World Superbike Champion, MotoGP race winner, and current team principal of the Rahal Ducati Moto team, Ben Spies.

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). 

 

 
In this episode, James and Corey dive into the Texan’s story, exploring the journey that shaped him into a fierce competitor and what he’s learned about life since hanging up his leathers.

Available on all major podcast platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music, the twentieth full episode with Ben is out now. Video of the episode can also be viewed on Spotify or YouTube.

We hope you enjoy!
