The images are not great since they had to be scanned from the magazine and it does not offer digital copies. But, I am darn excited about all the photos being mine. My sweet husband said I can finally buy a new Canon 70-200 2.8, since I am shooting from a used Sigma that I picked up for $500 a year ago off of Craigslist.

I did not shoot the cover image, but this is the only magazine strictly dedicated to vintage motocross.

    Thank you for the nice comments. I'm still so very excited. I had supplied the magazine with about 18 shots that they requested off my site, hoping to see one in print. I'm still amazed they printed 12 of them.

    Many of you do not remember, some do :), but I was in a panic last year when I purchased my 70-200 2.8 lens right before AMA Nationals at Washougal. I received great advice from many people and I appreciate every one of you taking the time to help out a panic stricken Motomom!

    Congrats, feels great to get published, I have been published twice recently (same mag) and the vindication does feel nice. Glad you get new gear out of it, that is always a bonus - now get two in one month and maybe he'll let you get a new camera body

    For you non-motorcycle guys, VMX is well known in the motorcycle world for their high production values and top notch photography. IdahoMotomom landed a good one for her first one! Congrats!!

    Thank you Doug. Why don't you head on up to Boise next year and race the Inter-AM? This year they ran a winter/sand course on one day and the next a summer/dirt course. Good racing..Chuck Sun was there. He's still fast and nice as ever. Of course Scott Wallenberg was there and he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever find.

    Ah, thank you for the suggestion but my vintage motocross days are well behind me although I keep an eye on the happenings and day dream. The username I use is a legacy now from the 1990's. I do however, still have one Bultaco waiting to be restored to it's former glory. :D
