Autorenporträt

Matt Stone (Camarillo, CA), former executive editor of Motor Trend  magazine, has been a professional automotive journalist and photographer since 1985. He is the award-winning author and photographer of several books, including Motorbooks’ best-selling 365 Cars You Must Drive,  McQueen’s Machines, McQueen’s Motorcycles, Hot Rod Empire, and The IROC Porsches. He is the co-author, with Preston Lerner of Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman and History’s Greatest Automotive Mysteries, Myths, and Rumors Revealed. Dave Ekins is a motorcycling legend.  Born in 1932, Dave and his brother Bud pioneered the notion of off-road desert racing with motorcycles, and their early 1960s rides up and down the Baja peninsula proved to be the seeds that spawned the original Mexican Off Road Races, later known as the Baja 500 and 1000.  In 1964 Dave teamed with brother Bud, Cliff Coleman and Steve McQueen to represent the United States in the International Six Day Trial motorcycle enduro taking place that year in East Germany in which Dave Ekins earned an individual Gold Medal.  He also became a factory sponsored development test rider for Honda, and later editor of Petersen's Motorcyclist magazine.  Now retired, Dave Ekins was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2001.
