Throttler Magazine has published IHG!

I'm totally excited! I made Throttler Magazine! I think I actually have been published in a printed magazine now but I'll have to make sure on that! I re-wrote part of the story so it's a little different then the one that made Garage-Girls. Anyway...YAY! I'm as giddy as a little kid at Christmas!!! Below is the link to the online magazine. If you scroll down 1/2 way you'll find my story and a link to the PDF file. I seriously need to go run around the house now in excited glee! Can you tell this is a big deal for me? lol Anyway...check it out!

Update: Yes...I have been published in Throttler! I'm such a complete dork that after work I drove to the Harley dealer and got 3 copies.(didn't want to seem too greedy since they are free and all) I'll have to go to some other places and scoop up some more. Thanks to everyone that have left the great comments about my accomplishment. Thanks to all of you for following my blog religiously. You all ROCK! I hope we all are able to cross paths someday very soon!

Throttler Motorcycle Magazine - for riders, about riders, by riders

There is a new Motorcycle Magazine dedicated to motorcycles and the people who ride them, right here in Iowa! It's called Throttler Motorcycle Magazine and it's a free monthly publication that is distributed all across Iowa at your local motorcycle dealership, bars, banks, restaurants, and convenience stores. To find a location near you click on this link: http://www.throttlermagazine.com/throttlerDISTRIBUTE.html

Throttler promises to cover interest stories on riders, rallies and businesses across the state. They are looking for riders across Iowa to help them cover events and contribute photos. This is the perfect opportunity for the motorcycle communities in Iowa to help keep everyone informed about motorcycle issues and events going on across our fine state.

Throttler also has a website that you should visit. There are links to their advertisers that help make this magazine free to everyone. http://www.throttlermagazine.com/index.html I also noticed that if you are unable to pick up the lastest issue you can read a few of the stories on their website. Make sure you try to find a copy though because the pictures are great and their is a section dedicated to Iowans and pictures of them on their bikes. It's similar to "Snaps" in American Iron but the thing I like most about it was that Throttler let the rider write about themself and why they ride what they ride.

Best of luck to Roderick Kabel and his staff at Throttler Magazine. It's a great looking mag and I look forward to lots of great reading and photos in the coming months.
