Total Motorcycle and the Los Angeles Times

#1 Unread post by totalmotorcycle »

I have some exciting news to share with you all. Total Motorcycle was contacted by Susan Carpenter, throttle jockey columnist for the los angeles times as to seek TMW's assistance in a Q&A column on motorcycling.

The assistance was in reguards to our unique and original Total Motorcycle Fuel and Economy Guide ( viewtopic.php?t=5475 ). The Motorcycle Industry Council referred the Los Angeles Times to Total Motorcycle as the MIC recognises TMW as a good source of information.

Total Motorcycle assisted the Los Angeles Times via 30 minute telephone interview with their questions as best as possible.

I requested a link or copy of the column to share with all of you here.

Thank you for all of your help with the Total Motorcycle Fuel and Economy Guide and if you haven't added your bikes stats to it, please do so as it's about to get even more popular.

Thank you very much as well for making Total Motorcycle your virtual motorcycle riding destination. Here is to you, our members, supporters, adverters and visitors for making Total Motorcycle make a difference in the world through your help and support.

:cheers:


Mike.

That'll be some good publicity for TMW. Good deal!

I'm up for a celebratory ride. I need to escape my in-laws anyway...

My girlfriend is out of town at her parents place for thanksgiving, so I've got all the time I want. Oooh, and now that I think about it, I'll ride my motorcycle when I go get my tatoo tonight, then I'll really look like a biker!

Well, drat, now that TMW is the top of the heap everyone is going to have to work harder to stay there.

What to go, TMW!
