In my opinion Dirt Bike Magazine is the finest offroad moto book in the USA. The editorial staff has years of experience that they mix with moto passion in the best possible way. TOM WEBB IS THE TOP CHEF OF MOTO JOURNALISM; SIDI’S AND MOTONATION’S ADVERTISING DOLLARS ARE WELL-PLACED in Dirt Bike Magazine and have been so for many years, both in the past and the future!

If your goal is to reach hard-core motocross racers, create brand awareness and sell products, Motocross Action is the #1 must-buy magazine in the industry. For over 40 years Motocross Action has given its readers something no other motocross publication or media can: Real EXPERIENCE. Because we RACE. Every weekend (and most weekdays) we are at the track riding, racing and testing every new bike and product, and giving our readers exclusive access to the information they seek when they’re making their purchasing decisions. Motorcycle Industry magazine’s annual Industry Research Survey asked, “Which consumer magazine drives riders to your store?” In the off-road market, Motocross Action was #1. Why? Because readers TRUST the guys in the orange MXA helmets to give them the straight scoop. Available in the consumer market as a print version (and still the world’s #1 newsstand-selling moto

mag with 246,000+ monthly readers); a mobile app (immediately downloadable to the iPhone, iPad, as well as Android-based smartphones, tablets and other e-readers); a PC-based digital version; a special dealers-only digital version; a great online site (www. motocrossactionmag.com) with over 500,000 visits per month; a prolific video-production division; and a very engaged social media audience, Motocross Action has enormous reach and credibility with serious off-road and motocross enthusiasts who look to all of our media platforms to find out what’s new in the sport, what products are hot and what companies are supporting the niche. ­Your company’s products or services will be seen every month by literally MILLIONS of informed, ready-to-buy racers worldwide. When determining your company’s marketing strategies, there is no other industry partner that will deliver as well as Motocross Action.

Dirt Bike magazine is immersed in a full-blown hard-core world of its own. It bristles with a passion for off-road and is the #1 magazine that targets the adventurer, the traveler and the racer. 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 sport’s regrowth; the aftermarket is thriving. This fits in perfectly with the mission statement of Dirt Bike. We’re riders, racers and techheads. We live the sport, we go to the races, and we play-ride with the stars. This translates into editorial that not only showcases the machines, but also how both the pros and our staff offer insight and tips they can’t get anywhere else, which gives the readers an edge over their friends and competitors. 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 are critical to the whole offroad experience. Because the magazine covers the sport from

woods racing to motocross, desert to closed-course off-road and, of course, the burgeoning dual-sport world, our readers aren’t forced into a track-only publication. Dirt Bike bristles with heritage and depth with all things dirt bike. 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 crave. The magazine is led by Tom Webb, long known for his passion for off-road; Ron Lawson, a great editor, rider and tough as manzanita; and Mark Tilley, one of the few editors who could actually qualify for a motocross national team. Mated to Dirt Bike magazine’s print product, we have a vibrant and popular website dirtbikemagazine.com that is full of original content, a mobile app (for iPhone, iPad and Android), plus dedicated editorial for our Social Media outlets on Facebook

and Instagram. Products, tests, reviews and passionate content reach millions of dirt bike enthusiast every month! Dirt Bike 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 or service for moto, off-road, enduro, desert, dual-sport or hare scrambles, Dirt Bike remains your #1 and most cost-effective choice.

We have supported DIRT BIKE magazine over the last few years because they have supported us. This support has meant that not only are we benefitting from the exposure our advertisements bring us, but also we’re provided with countless opportunities for additional exposure by having our products used in tech reviews, test bikes and custom builds. Their magazine helps us reach a segment that others don’t and it’s a go-to source for promoting our off-road products. Kevin Stevens, ODI Grips - Brand Manager of Powersports 10
