About Kevin Hayes...

Kevin Hayes was born in Santa Anna, California, and raised under the wide skies of Mississippi, where he learned early the value of grit, loyalty, and a good sense of humor. In his younger days, he found freedom on two wheels and trouble often followed close behind—motorcycles and women kept life interesting, and he wouldn’t trade those memories for anything. These days, life has a different rhythm. Kevin spends his time with his wife and his loyal service dog by his side, reflecting on the roads he’s traveled and the people who shaped him along the way. He carries a deep appreciation for the teammates and friends from his past and hopes to reconnect with those who shared the journey.
