In the episode, I interview Matt Couchman "Lurch" about his law enforcement career.\xa0 Most of our audience know that the faces/voices of Law Abiding Biker (LAB) are either full-time Law Enforcement Officers (LEO) or retired LEOs.\xa0 Lurch has been working for LAB part-time for several years while working full-time as a LEO.\xa0 He retired recently and came to work for LAB full-time as the company's Chief Operations Officer (COO).\xa0 Lurch worked for the Washington State Patrol (WSP) for just over 25 years.\xa0 He was unable, in past episodes, to name the agency he worked for and what he did at the agency because of policy.\xa0\xa0

Lurch was hired by the WSP in December of 1995 as a Trooper Cadet.\xa0 He was assigned to Mansion Security providing protection to the Governor of the State of Washington.\xa0 He attended the 80th Trooper Basic Training Academy and successfully completed his Field Training in April of 1997.\xa0

As a Trooper, Lurch worked in District 2, headquartered in Bellevue, and District 3, headquartered in Yakima.\xa0 He held many specialty assignments including; Firearms and Defensive Tactics Instructor, Certified Technical Specialist (CTS), Aggressive Driver Apprehension Team (ADAT) member, and Serious Highway Crime Apprehension Team (SHCAT) member.\xa0 Lurch and I knew of each other since high school, but we really got to know each other while working on the SHCAT team together.\xa0 Our experiences during our SHCAT days led to a lifelong friendship.

Lurch was eventually promoted to Sergeant, then Lieutenant, and eventually to Captain.\xa0 We talk about him moving around the state for these promotions and the experiences that came along with them.\xa0 Bringing it back to motorcycles, we talk about Motor Officer school.\xa0 Lurch has some funny stories about his experience.\xa0\xa0

We're excited to have Lurch as our COO and the future of LAB!
