My Entrance into Moto-Journalism

Postby Dualsport Chic » Tue Feb 23, 2016 11:55 pm

For the past few years, I've been working towards building my skills to the point of being able to be successful as a moto-journalist when I reach retirement age (60). This was another critical step in the process. I was awarded my own column (Off the Beaten Path) on Ride-CT.com/Ride-New England.com. Under the mentorshiip of the forum's senior editor, and longtime newspaper columnist, I will work on honing my skills over the next few years, and hopefully draw readers in to all the beauty and joy that can be found on two-wheels from an off-road touring perspective in the Northeastern United States.

It will be a fun new adventure to keep me inspired, while I hopefully inspire others to get out there and live their two wheeled dreams.

Thank you WS!

First column should be appearing in the next couple days - with the editor for final polishing.

Good article, nice introduction and you'll do fine, you have the experience and earned your chops as an off road rider. How do I subscribe to keep up with you.
P.S. - I will still stick to pavement ;) .
I've been there before. Can I get there, again?
