About Bike Monk
Meet the Founder
Hi, I'm Alex Thompson, the founder of Bike Monk. My journey with motorcycles began over 15 years ago when I bought my first bike – a beat-up Honda that taught me everything about maintenance the hard way.
After years of wrenching, riding, and learning from countless mistakes, I realized that the motorcycle community needed a reliable source of practical wisdom. That's how Bike Monk was born – to share the knowledge I wish I had when I started riding.
Today, I'm a certified motorcycle technician, safety instructor, and most importantly, a passionate rider who believes that every mile should be safe, enjoyable, and memorable.
