Publisher’s Note
This has been a rough month in many parts
of our state. Severe rains caused massive flooding all
over, including around my own neighborhood. Many
staff members were affected, and many events we had
planned to cover for this issue were cancelled, or just
unreachable.
Despite the road closures, the power outages,
the missed events, and occasional loss of Internet, I
think we have come up with a pretty good issue for
you. We have Part 2 of our “From Passenger to Rider”
series, this time Ashley took the rider’s course at
Hammond Harley-Davidson. It was her first time ever
riding a bike on her own, and she did a great job. It was
a lot of fun for me just being around to watch her do
that.
We got to go the the Lafayette airport to see the
Wings of Freedom Tour, that was definitely worth the
trip. We didn’t get to fly in one of the planes this time,
but that is in the plans for next year.
Our online growth has been phenomenal, and
now we are growing our print circulation as well. We
have been printing more and more copies each month,
but there are never enough to go around. We are
increasing by 25% this month, and will increase 25%
above that for the May issue. At that point, we’ll be
printing twice as many copies each month compared
to any other magazine in the state, as far as we know.
I hope that’s enough to go around. Thanks for the
support, and we’ll keep doing what we do.
100% Original. 100% Louisiana, 100% Motorcycles.
