He may not be able to catch the GNCC, but he could take find pictures from last year and promote this year's event.

It would be so much better if he could get in touch with someone from FTR and get pictures and promote our own state series.

Use www.floridatrailriders.org somewhere in your story...That would be awesome!

I'll be sure to mention the site and the races you hold.  However, this will probably run after the March 3 or 4 event so I couldn't promote this particular race.  I'll check and see when the races are and get a little blurb about them.

I sent you 1 attached picture on my e-mail along with a photobucket link. Can you not use alink like that?

I got it, thank you.  I can use photobucket links, but if you have the actual high-res picture, it would be better.  This way the page designer can utilize the picture without having to worry about it becoming pixelated.  But, this will work I think.

Awesome Ida, thank you.

I totally understand your reservations about the media.  I worked in the newspaper business long enough (and have since moved on, I am doing this as side work now) to know that things do get slanted.

I hope bushwacker took no offense to my response, I want to give you guys an avenue to share your world and that's what I plan to do. 

But, since this is a Palm Beach County/South Florida paper, I'll obviously have to focus on where our readership would have to travel to.

Thanks to all of you,

Ched.

Why? Because this is for an outdoors section, highlighting what people do for fun outdoors.

Plus, there's only so much you can write about golfing, isn't there?

I feel your pain Bushwacker, my only intention is to highlight the good times you all have, where you can have it and open eyes to an alternative sport, if you will.  My hopes is people will get a different perspective or maybe even learn something new all together.

I don't have any needs, nor does my editor, this is a story about what you all do for fun.

I also have nothing to do with the SunSentel. I am writing this story for the Palm Beach Post.


Thanks,

Ched

I do, and you should know, that was taken at Hardrock in Ocala, the rider was doing about 30mph around a corner and just happened to look over at that moment.

Id@

Wow. If you could provide the name of the rider if you know it that would be great, and I am assuming you took that picture?

Thanks! I look forward to seeing the picture.

Thank you both!

Id@, do you have this picture without the watermark  http://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r242/ida_mann/?action=view&current=IMG_6989.jpg


Could you email that to me? ched.chase@gmail.com

Again, I'll be sure to give anyone the proper credit if we run their picture(s).

Thanks

Hello all,

I am a freelance writer for the Palm Beach Post, headquartered in West Palm Beach, Florida.  I have just been assigned a story to cover the popularity of off-roading and four-wheelers here in our state of Florida.  Basically I am asking for your help on this.  I'm looking for popular destinations, a few quotes and why your sport is so appealing and exciting.

On top of that, I would be greatly appreciative of those who could send me a few pictures, we will happily give you credit (or whomever took the picture).

Please e-mail me at ched.chase@gmail.com if you would be kind enough to help me out here.  This will be a featured story in the Palm Beach Post's Explore the Outdoors section and I have a deadline of Feb. 27 to get this done.

I look forward to hearing from anyone willing to help out. 

A big thanks in advance to all of you.  I look forward to hearing about the fun you have here in South Florida!


Thanks again,

Ched.
