  I have subscribed to this mag for about 15 years and have read every issue front to back. It is the best source of info for off-roading on 2 wheels this side of the old mississippi river. In other words, no California B.S.

  Here’s a letter I got today praising Trail Rider, we didn’t have to
  hold his head under water or nothing, he just wrote this nice letter
  and we appreciate it, I think you will too.

  Howdy folks,

  If you have not gotten your hands on a copy of the March issue of Trail
  Rider magazine, you need too!

  This particular issue should be entitled “The Vinduro Edition”.

  As if last months feature of Richard Yamane’s Mazilla was not enough,
  this month’s issue features Jeff DeBell’s outstanding article about the
  11th Annual Leroy Winters Memorial ISDT Reunion Ride, featuring a bunch
  of great photos taken by Ed Chestnut, that is spread out over a
  whopping
  six pages, beginning on Page 12.

  Then, on Page 28, Jeff’s behemoth Six Days BMW is featured in the
  second
  installment of the new “What’s in Yer Garage?” feature. If there was
  any
  doubt that Jeff is a manly man, this article will remove it…..or
  firmly
  convince you that he is as warped as the rest of us!

  Finally, on Page 32, there is Charlie Williams new feature “20
  Questions
  (More or Less)”, featuring none other than “Young Ted” del Solar.

  I don’t know about you guys, but it is my humble opinion that Trail
  Rider
  magazine is getting better and better with every issue. Not only does
  it
  have Ed Hertfelder’s “The Duct Tapes” as the final article of every
  issue, it now has Rick “Super Hunky” Sieman’s “Check Point” as well.

  If you’re not a Trail Rider subscriber, it’s an easy problem to remedy.

  If you only want to purchase a particular issue of the magazine, rather
  than subscribing, go to:

  My hat’s off to Paul Clipper, Charlie Williams, and all of the crew at
  Trail Rider a job well done in continuously improving a great
  publication
  for trail riders, by trail riders!

  Oh, by the way, keep an eye on upcoming issues for my articles on the
  inaugural Broxton Bridge Dual Sport Ride, and, hopefully, the inaugural
  Black Bear Dual Sport Ride. I’m trying to come up with something good
  for “What’s in Yer Garage?” too.

  Happy trails,

  Al

  Paul, you said that you were looking for articles on UNUSUAL VINATGE bikes. How about Harley sprint with dual spark plug head, lowered engine with long travel both ends and several other very unique features. How about a Matchless 500 set up for trial with tungsten insert flywheel, redesiged kickstarting system and many other things unique. OR a Norton road racer with belt primary dr and so on. Can we submit this to you for a short magazine article. Thanks Paul
