I created Total Motorcycle from scratch, back in 1999 to provide a helpful, friendly, useful and unbiased motorcycling site that would appeal to new and experienced riders regardless of where they ride or what they ride. 20 years later, I am very proud to state Total Motorcycle has over 320 million unique readers from all around the globe and is North America's leading motorcycle website and top 4000 website in the world. Amazing to think that, TMW is older than LinkedIn, Facebook and the same age as Google!I charge nothing for it's unique content and instead draw success on the number of people helped through it's guides, handbooks and strong community. With over 3 Billion pages and 10 Billion hits severed I'm proud to be a part of building a positive world.
