Dirt Bike magazine is the leading authority in the off-road world. Just looking at the evolution of the magazine, it mirrors the history of this sport. We started out #1 and have remained #1 for 45 years. No other publication or media can make that statement. And now, with dirt bike sales on the rise, our passiondriven sport is throttling past a testy economy and the constant bombardment of outside influences into a world where “doing it” is key. Our readers

live to ride and are obsessed with keeping their machines current, in tune and viable. This is one of the main reasons for the regrowth of the sport; the aftermarket is thriving. Ironically, this fits nicely into the mission statement of Dirt Bike. We’re riders, racers and tech heads. We live the sport, we go to the races, we play-ride with the stars. This

translates into editorial that showcases not only the machines, but also how both the pros and our staff make better machines for the public. We offer

our readers insight and tips they can’t get anywhere else, which gives them an edge over their friends and competitors. We’ve changed a bit of our content recently, offering much more in-depth howto pieces for riders who are keeping their machines for another year. You’ll also see that Dirt Bike is testing more products, knowing that our

readers are devoting generous amounts of their spendable income on their machines, plus the parts, accessories and gear that’s critical in the whole off-road experience. Dirt Bike magazine is the premier publication for the dirt enthusiast. Because the magazine covers the sport from woods racing to motocross, desert to closedcourse off-road and, of course, the blossoming dual-sport world, our readers aren’t forced into a trackonly publication. For

over 40 years, Dirt Bike magazine has offered high-end race tests, long-term evaluations, and large sections of hop-up and technical features that our readers eat up. Led by Tom Webb, long known for his passion for off-road; Ron Lawson, a great editor, rider and tough as hickory; and Mark Tilley, one of the few editors who could actually qualify for a motocross national team; Dirt Bike bristles with heritage and depth with all things dirt bike. The list of Dirt Bike test editors has pro motocrossers,

elite off-roaders and bike-building gurus who not only maintain the integrity of the magazine, but also help showcase the product and gear that our readers demand. Dirt Bike magazine has proven that it is sought after by the actual riders who participate and the motorcycle companies and aftermarket that support it. If you have a product a service for moto, off-road, enduro, desert, dual-sport or hare scrambles, Dirt Bike remains your numberone and most costeffective choice.
