From April through September 2006, we ran a contest entitled “Everybody Has A Story” sponsored by Samp;S Cycle, a leader in performance products for American V-twins. We gave away a prize each month to a reader who submitted a motorcycle story that most touched our hearts and made us feel some emotion.

These writers won a jacket and a Marge Smith commemorative shirt from Samp;S Cycle. Smith was the co-founder of Samp;S Cycle along with her husband.
