For those who are into motorcycles, this isn’t a shocking revelation. But try talking to your friends who don’t ride and you’ll likely find them at least a little surprised to learn McGregor is big into motorcycles. The guy was able to keep most of his motorcycles after going through a divorce recently, a fact which must have been some consolation, especially considering what all he’s stashed away.
