A couple of months ago I was approached by Randall Kilner, the Editor of Dirt Comp magazine, to see if I could maybe do a write up about the Thumb Pump ATV Festival for his magazine. UTV driver and owner of the thesxssite.com Gavin Greaves  had made the suggestion to Randall and with the UTV class being run at this years event it made sense for this kind of offroad motorsport mag to pick up a story on some SxS racing but when Randall mentioned that he might like to run some more ATV content we jumped at the opportunity to get involved in bringing quads back into the mainstream print media in Australia. The next edition (E25) is due out on Monday the 11th of July and will contain various articles from both myself and Mick on ATV events and features.

Already Randall and I have been planning the ATV content for the next issue so it looks like it is full steam ahead to keep ATV's in print, hopfully with some industry support build up over the next few issues. With this collaboration of web and print media from different sources we will likley genereate some cross over content that ties together, like articles in the mag that refer to a video we may have done on a similar topic on the site. Dirt Comp will also be making and effort to cover as many major ATV events as possible in the future including MX, Enduros and Desert Racing and what ever else we may be able to get to.
