West Ryder grew up on the streets of Revere, learning the tough lessons of life by Route 3 South. After failing in his lifelong dream of being a crash test dummy for the Pinto car company, West came back to the life he knew. Cruising the streets of Boston in his rusting purple Pinto, Ryder has found his niche as a private investigator and freelance restaurant reviewer, blurting his views in his thick Boston accent to whoever will listen.
