The Funny Story Behind the First Ever Ragged Roads Merch Photoshoot

The Funny Story Behind the First Ever Ragged Roads Merch Photoshoot

The first ever box of Ragged Roads Moto merch showed up the other day and Tracy and John planned the most epic photoshoot at sunset in the rain-forest. They decided to take John's broken down Husqvarna Norden that was pissing coolant into the head, misfiring and running so rich that it would take off at times after letting off the throttle. 

 

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

As they set up, the mosquitoes started swarming around them like they were the main course at a bug buffet. Tracy tried to pose, but she couldn't stop swatting at the pesky insects. John always says there is no mosquitoes on Vancouver Island, but on this evening, every mosquito in Canada decided to descend upon the photo shoot location. 

In hindsight, the sweet smell of burning coolant was likely attracting the bugs. 

The photo shoot start by hanging each item from the fall 2024 line on the bike for the main product shoot, followed by some lifestyle shots of Tracy and John.

By the end of it, John was ready to ride (as always) and found a sweet little root booter to boost off of. He always says, "you ain't having fun until sliding sideways or got your wheels in the air!"

In the end, it was a successful photoshoot with the outcome of some great photos and lots of mosquito bites, as well as confirmation that John's Norden is headed back tho the dealer for some major servicing.
