"I'm here with Arch Motorcycle Company, and this is a mule for a KRGT-1S, and it was pretty thrilling to go up that hill today[...]It's beautiful, It's picturesque, It was a little muddy. But listen, I mean, John McGinnis, Alan Cathcart. I mean, there's just so many legends here today, just surrounded by amazing machines and people. And so it's really just a great honor to be here and to have the chance to participate." Reeves said

Keanu Reeves was then asked how his interest peaked in motorcycles. He responded:

"They got in my blood when I was a little kid. There was a motorcycle gang that used to come into town in the summer, 'Satan's Choice.' They looked like pirates, I wanted to be a pirate, started riding bikes[...]And then just generally, I met Gard Hollinger, who's a designer and custom bike builder, and together, over the past four years, three years in development, we've made the Arch KRGT-1."

Reeves further explained the mechanics of the Arch motorcycle. Moreover, he said that meeting former AMA Superbike Championship legend Freddie Spencer was a "dream come true."
